An immature Common Gallinule was spotted yesterday and today at Kyker Bottoms
Wildlife Refuge. I also saw a Bobolink there yesterday, but did not relocate
it today. Other noteworthy sightings include FOS Sandhill Crane, Lincoln's
Sparrow, American Wigeon, and Golden-crowned Kinglet.
The area in which the gallinule was seen is designated on the map in the
accompanying link as “Open Water” (labeled with an “E”). We walked the “Open
Water Levee” (labeled with the number “7”.) Here is the link to the map:
