Spent yesterday morning from 8 to 11AM at Arrowhead marsh. The patience of
waiting for tide to recede paid off as I saw 4 Clapper Rails and a SORA. The
combine Clapper Rails call is an experience in itself and I can bet that
there were at least 8-10 different location from where the calls were
coming.
Later a saw a pair of Peregrine Falcon hunt what seemed to be a Dowticher to
me. One of the falcon's grabbed the prey in flight and then flew away.
Some of the pictures are posted here.
