Now that I have a new car I'm finally able to get out and do some birding.

First stop was Montezuma NWR.

Pied-billed Grebe


Female Red-winged Blackbird


Yellow Warbler


Purple Martins


Tree Swallow


Male Red-winged Blackbird


Female Red-winged Blackbird


American Coot




Common Gallinule






Red-winged Blackbird


Northern Shovelers having a nap


Great Blue Heron having a Bullhead dinner




In the afternoon I went to Beaver Lake Nature Center for a guided nature walk, Spring Warblers. Didn't see any warblers, but I saw some other FOY and 1 life bird.

Female Downy Woodpecker


Male Rose-breasted Grosbeak


A fleeting glimpse of an Eastern Bluebird


White-breasted Nuthatch


Veery


First Pileated Woodpecker I've ever seen.
