Lots of birds!

On the morning of April 16 I went to some nice marsh/waterfront areas with my bird club. I saw a lot of cool birds!

First we went to Huntley Meadows, a marsh, and saw these birds.

Rare Rusty Blackbird. We saw about 15 in the woods.

Swamp Sparrow - very pretty!

Eventually, we finished at Huntley Meadows. Then we headed over to a nice waterfront area : Belle Haven.

Blurry shot: Caspian Tern. This is the largest Tern species in the world.

House Sparrow foraging on the tree. We suspect it was eating some kind of insect.

Barred Owl - Best view I've ever gotten of one. It was forty feet away!
