On this blustery November afternoon, the CRP was mostly devoid of signs of birdlife, except for a large family of bluebirds (6 or 7 of them) that was moving around the meadow. It is nice to finally ID them by ear, as they fly overhead with their little "chortle" calls (or "churrrl"). The females seem more ready to pose than the males.
Also, tis the season for mergansers. Caught a male hooded at dusk on Rosemary Pond and what I think is a female hooded on the river at the CRP. (Neither photo is any good as a photo but I was going for the ID. Definitely no buffleheads here).
