Birds were active when Lois L. and I arrived at Freestone Community Park around 7:30 a.m. With 88 acres of rolling grass hills and various venues for activity, looking for birds was in no way compromised by the woman running up and down one hill for exercise or by its playing fields.
Starting at the combo lakes (an upper and lower), waterfowl was abundant; shorebirds were gathered with little skittishness regarding humans. Great for photos! Skipping the 91 AMERICAN WIGEON, the 12 RING-NECKED DUCK, and the 35 NEOTROPIC CORMORANT, I'm going to get right to the photos.
A favorite of mine, the GREEN HERON was totally focused.
In several places, we found small flocks of ROSY-FACED LOVEBIRDS:
In less than two hours, we managed to enjoy 24 species while we walked the hills and sidewalks.
