April Is Off With A BANG
BLACK-NECKED STILTS
3 of us birded Gibson County, Indiana on Monday and Tuesday of this week and totaled 73 species for the two days. We spent most of our time at Cane Ridge National Wildlife Refuge, Tern Bar Slough Wildlife Management Area and Patoka River National Wildlife Refuge. Shore birds were everywhere but not a wide variety of birds. The best birds of the week so far were the above Black-necked Stilts. They are so elegant in stature and stark in coloration. Reports are coming in from locations throughout the Tri-state region of warblers, vireos and other neo-tropic migrants so the next weeks will be chocked full of new species. Stay tuned bird lovers!
