Killdeer
Rachel and I saw a Killdeer yesterday over by the pond. I’ve seen a few before near our house, but this was the first sighting this year. We also went for a walk and saw a dead muskrat, so I was relieved to see that the muskrat that normally hangs out in our wetlands was still there yesterday evening. The ducks have been pairing up over the last week or so and preparing nests.
Saturday morning I drove to Mona Reservoir and saw a couple hawks, a magpie, geese, mallards, and a bunch of American Coots.
