Thursday Morning Bird Ramble




Thursday September 27,2007 The tide is super high this morning and So we did not get to the beach but even with that slow start to the morning birding we did see some very good birds. Teresa wanted to photograph Roseate Spoonbills. They were resting on a little tucked away spot on the Jekyll Island Causeway. It was going to take so doing but the crew was willing so after some rules we tried to sneak in. Teresa got some shots. I hope they turn out for her.

The tide was just way to high to make a second attempt at the beach birds so we went to the Campground Sanctuary. It was a good move. There were at least three species of Thrush. A few warblers popped out including one very stunning American Redstart male. That bird just sparkled as it took advantage of the bird bath. What a little jewel the bird Sanctuary has turned out to be for the birds and birdwatchers.
