Yesterday was a quiet day on the road. Was looking for wildflowers and
birding at the same time. It’s always so nice to get the first of Spring
anything. Louisiana Waterthrushes, Yellow-throated Vireo, Black and White
Warbler, Northern Parula, Blue-gray Gnatcatcher, and Yellow-throated Vireo.
Also, my favorite little butterflies, Falcate Orange-tips, were out and
about.
Did a quick side trip to Sharp Chapel Road in Sebastian County. The wet
units were loaded with ducks and shorebirds. A AGFC employee said they were
fixin to draw down the water and there’d be mud flats. Woohoo.
Alma WTP still had a dozen Ruddy Ducks, plus a few dabblers.
