 |
| This was the first time we saw a Golden-crowned Kinglet, so we were excited to see one. |
 |
| We were surprised at how small they are, being only 3-4 in long with their tails. |
 |
| We saw some in a tree before leaving to go to Izaak Walton, then saw this Golden-crowned Kinglet |
hopping around.

 |
| This was probably the first time we saw a Pied-billed Grebe! |
 |
| You can tell this is a Pied-billed Grebe by the brown body (no other kind of grebe here is brown) and the grey beak with a black stripe. |
 |
| We saw these Blue-winged Teals near a Great Blue Heron, swimming around doing duck stuff. |
 |
| I thought they might be Gadwall, but upon closer inspection, I noticed they weren't. |
