My friend and I saw a Cattle Egret on Benjestown Rd. in
Millington TN on Tuesday the 23rd of April. Handsome bird
in his orange frilled white courting outfit. I thought it
was fitting that we saw both brown-headed COWbirds and
a CATTLE egret directly next to a bunch of cows.

I am new enough to birding not to know what I ought to
report. Everytime I see a new bird, it is the first time
to see it for me. My life list is growing by leaps and
bounds.

One Bald Eagle at Wapanocca Wildlife Refuge in Arkansas
on Monday (April 22nd). I was proud of my country and
amazed at Nature when I saw it. Umistakeable with white
head and tail, big yellow beak, slowly circling in the
sky. Just like the picture in my field guide.
