I forget I have always had the luxury (in my adult life) of living near water or working on water, thus enhancing my chances of seeing grebes and the like. <BR/><BR/>I also had the luxury of a heron rookery on an island right across the lake from my grandparents' place when I was growing up. I hope you get to see that one this weekend; it's a shame you can't go birding without encountering shady people in the parking lot. And those geese...bold critters.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07879771115420282834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30166446.post-77425566829319734812007-03-23T06:51:00.000-05:002007-03-23T06:51:00.000-05:00Those guys were probably a lot more interested in ...Those guys were probably a lot more interested in each other than in you...Not that there's anything wrong with that!<BR/><BR/>Even though you have brutal winters in MN, you seem to warm up pretty early.

I never would have id'd those grebes if I didn't have a digital picture to take home, enlarge and study.<BR/><BR/>Susan- I'm pretty cautious on an average day, but yesterday every bell and whistle went off!<BR/><BR/>Mary- I pity the goose that tried to eat Gina! I'll bet you flew into mama bear mode! I'm quite certain drugs were bought and sold in that lot yesterday.

I high-tailed it out of there! You were smart to retreat, Lynne, not only because of the geese. We would hate to hear you were pulled into the police station for questioning!

I find it hard to identify birds on the water and the camera is a great help.<BR/>RuthRuthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15892804871759397018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30166446.post-57184458247579388742007-03-21T20:57:00.000-05:002007-03-21T20:57:00.000-05:00Well at least it gave you something interesting to...Well at least it gave you something interesting to write about.Congratulations on another lifer.-On another note-I thought Jordan Sparks was a little better than that Melinda last night from what I saw.Larryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17955054342034509500noreply@blogger.com
