i took a road trip to Rockefeller Wildlife Refuge recently, and was able to get pictures of a decent variety of birds...i plan to go back in fall, winter and spring to get the widest range i can...
i added this to the "birds at your feeder" thread, but it doesn't really apply there...feel free to add bird, bug and other critter photos in this thread...
Neotropic cormorant
Various moulting great tailed grackles
Tricolored heron
Least bittern
Laughing gull
Clapper rail
Common gallinule
Yellow crowned night heron
Oops! How did that get there??

I’ve never thought much of cormorants or grackles, but those are some cool pictures of them, especially the Neotropic cormorant.

thanks! the moulting kind of made me feel sorry for the grackles, but it also gives them a little more character, i think...
