Along bike path in O'Fallon
My first time seeing these. Truly amazing!
In hardwood forest along FS 2910 (Dukes Experimental Forest)
Lifer!!!
Could not believe it. As I drove slowly into the park, wham! A bird I'd never seen before, feeding right at the side of the road.
According to others, they are often found at the site. (But, I'm not often found there :D )
Found at the edge of a lake, just above the waterline.
With mussels (200353084)
Seen at quite a distance and zipping away. Got what I could :(
Found by a friend. My photos here
ID tentative. Lifer bird for me.
Was struggling to digiscope some further out when I realized these 2 were right by the road!
