This Bobolink carried around these two worms for quite a while – perhaps a way to attract a mate? Shawangunk Grasslands NWR, 6\/8\/14.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

QUICK POST TODAY:<\/strong> I walked the trails out at Shawangunk Grasslands this morning with Karen Miller, Linda Scrima, Maria Loukeris, and Sharon Scavotto. We all did well with many photos of Bobolink and Savannah Sparrows. Grasshopper Sparrows were heard\u00a0and seen,\u00a0but with distant looks. Eastern Meadowlarks were mostly heard, though we did see a handful, but again nothing in close. No American Kestrels were seen by the group in the three hours we were there, and no Upland Sandpipers either. We did get an Upland Sandpiper on our way home – perched on a fence post. It was a distant but good look and I believe it was a life bird for everyone in the group except myself. It was a successful morning of birding and bird photography – I can’t wait to see everyone’s shots.<\/p>\n
