Warblers At Shaker Lakes













Here are some of the tools of the trade of an Ornithologist  














Checking this Warbler's fat content.  This one has some more eating to do before the flight to South America.  These little rascals can fly up to 500 miles a day!   














Getting ready to put a tracking band on the leg.














Banded warbler,  ready to be released.

Blue Heron at Shaker Lakes













I took this a few days ago.  I saw Kristin's "Duck Pond" photo.  It looks like the same wildflowers are in our shots.

I have not seen blue herons in quite awhile at Shaker Lakes.  They are beautiful.
