12-11-2014 visit..."It is all happening at the Refuge,"

 
Today was a departure from Goose chasing. We thought besides chasing another Bobcat, we would go after anything in the Rail family while looking on the Bay Boat ramp road. In addition to the four Rails found there was an Otter that signed his artist release.
Driving back towards the Visitor Information Station, we found a Colin Sparrow, a tardy Monarch butterfly and several Quall chicks trying to cross the road at the Wood lot. In the Shoveler pond loop, there was an abundance of Coots, Ducks, Cormorants, a few Black necked Stilts, and Hawks, just to name a few.
 
OBTW The Calico Shoveler is back!
 
 It was warm enough for the Gators to make an appearance.
 
 Like I said yesterday, "It is all happening at the Refuge,"
