I went to Central city park today. There were Common grackle drinking water from the fountain, House sparrows chirping, doves and mockingbirds sitting on the powerlines. At the end of Lower Poplar Street in the huge wetland, I had Blue winged teal and Mallards swimming in the water. Lesser Yellowlegs, Spotted sandpiper, Solitary sandpiper, Least sandpiper and Wilson's snipe working the edges of the wetland. Barn, Northern rough winged and Tree swallows flying overhead. A flock of Canada goose resting in the middle of the large field. Palm and Yellow rumped warblers calling from the isolated trees in the field. Three Little blue herons were chasing each other around in the water. On the way out, I flushed a Common ground dove from the railroad tracks. On the interstate on the way home, I saw a Cooper's hawk perching on the powerline.
