Black-necked Stilts at Gilbert Water Ranch 11-12-12
A couple of weeks ago Chris Rohrer and I went birding at Gilbert Water Ranch near Phoenix, AZ.
While we were there we searched everywhere for birds.
We found so many! And we kept on birding!
We chased birds in Tucson and found a Western Grebe at Lakeside Park on November 14, and a Common Loon at the Silverbell recharge basins on November 16th! If I am turning Chris into an eBirder, he is turning me into a chaser! What can I say? It’s keeping me young, but I don’t get much else done!

Then, over the Thanksgiving Holiday Gus and I flew off to the Salton Sea.
(Actually, we drove and I counted birds all the way there and back again!)
However, this has left little time for blogging!

But, don’t get your feathers in a fluff! I’m working on new blog posts right now! and There Will be Birds! (and stories too!)

So, relax and take a little paddle around the pond. I’ll be back soon!
