Willow and I had a short camping trip to the Highlands last week. We cut it short by a day when the weather got too unsettled and the neighbors too noisy. That’s the problem with campgrounds – you never know what kind of neighbors you might get. We hiked and I paddled my kayak and I went birding while Willow waited, impatiently.

There were also loons and other water birds and I’ll post them soon.

Marshes and wetlands are important habitats for birds and other wildlife.

Here are a few more marsh birds. Yellow-headed Blackbird, Common Goldeneye with a flock of babies, hatch year Pied-billed Grebe, Eastern Kingbird, a pair of Ring-necked Ducks, American Coots and Gray Catbird. We had a fair amount of rain that day but also some sun breaks.
