I am not sure I would have known what I was looking at if I did see one. Shore birds still stump me! (flycatchers too!) I love the shot of the kingfisher in flight and the osprey. I also love Rock Wrens for the reasons you state. Tare so full of personality and the always seem so cheerful! I had no idea black-bellied whistling ducks made it that far north, though I question their choice of habitat!Kathie Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10377224759599266209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791077723521794200.post-82383504974419191692013-11-04T17:45:43.983-07:002013-11-04T17:45:43.983-07:00Thanks for stopping by Tommy.

Great write up an...Laurence what a fantastic post! Great write up and it is super informative, fun to read, and hilarious at the same time. In mentioning wrens, the White Tanks Mtns has some trails on it that are very productive for both Canyon and Rock Wrens. It would be the place for Canyon wren photos. Great job with shooting the Rock Wren and other goodies, and the Whistling ducks are always a great find!!Tommy DeBardelebenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14927348437153499516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791077723521794200.post-25948896310340952882013-11-04T14:38:20.322-07:002013-11-04T14:38:20.322-07:00Yeah, sorry about that.
