Horned Larks and Bald Eagles

Winter at Marian’s Marsh sees many of the birds disappear south.  The Toussaint River often has enough open water to still draw some wintering holdovers, largely Canadian Geese and hundreds, if not thousands, of gulls.  We had a fairly large number of Common Merganser in late February and frequent visits from Sandhill Cranes.

The first half of March often brings large populations of migrating waterfowl, but if they were present, I missed them.  I was able to capture a small group including Ring-necked Duck, Wood Duck, and Green-winged Teal.

We actually spotted some Great Blue Herons as early as January.  Warmer weather has increased their numbers and patience on the Marsh brings with it great photo opportunities.
