Roadside Birding and a Ton of Great Blue Herons

Great Blue Herons - Birdfreak

This summer we have had a lot of rain. A lot of farm fields are flooded which sandpipers, Great Blue Herons, Great Egrets and other waterbirds love. Frogs seem to love it to because my and my cousin Sammie saw (and caught) a lot of them and there were many different types.

We also saw a family of Sandhill Cranes. They had one baby and were eating in a field. I love Sandhill Cranes and they are one of my favorite birds. There were also two more cranes in another field.

I am going to go again soon to look for shorebirds and more herons. It was a lot of fun. I even got a life bird which I will post about soon.
