I'm new to taking pictures but I managed to get a few good ones + 3 lifers!! on my first visit to this huge park in the middle of a bougie suburb!
I've always wanted to see a pilated woodpecker, and was sooo excited to see this guy. The other two lifers were hooded merganser (female/juvenile) and the Male rose-breasted Grosbeak (i've seen a female before and heard them many times but never seen the male!). I also saw a (great?) egret, and many of my favorite duck - the wood duck :))). + some frisky muskrats? beavers?
I saw alot of white throated sparrows but interestingly not a lot of migratory warblers besides yellow-rumped warblers, last weekend I went out to Mississippi Gateway Regional Park and saw infinite amounts of palm warbers, but they must have all moved on!
