Willow Creek: Pahrump: February 18, 2011

What a day we had at Willow Creek Golf Course! Lots of laughter and birds
showing up everywhere. Glad there was Richard Cantino, with his camera and
his wonderful photography skills, Carol Cantino, who heard every bird and
pointed in the direction, she heard the sounds. In most instances I was
able to quickly pick out the birds. Having lots of fun as a new
photographer learning tons of stuff from Richard. I just finished a report
to Cornell Backyard Bird Count for February 18, 2011 for today. We saw 40
species today.

The Hooded Warbler was included on our report and a new guy showed up, he
is the Orange-Crowned Sparrow eating in Richard and Carol's yard. and we
saw 13 Violet Green Swallows, unexpected at this time of year. We were
thrilled!The two Pied-billed Grebes were interesting to watch. The male
brought in his beak, some green stuff from the side of the pond and gave it
to the female Pied-billed Grebe, she rubbed her beak against his and dived
under water with it and came out across the pond. Watched this process
repeated three times.
