Shelby Farms
Memphis, TN
I had a couple of hours to kill yesterday and did a quick tour around the
snow lined fields. At the lakes were; Ring-billed Gulls, lots of Canada
Geese and 22 Cackling plus 9 species of ducks. In the edge of the woods, I
found a mixed flock of over 60 Juncos and Chipping Sparrows. The dark morph
Harlan's still hides in the tree line around the garden plots and Kestrels and
two Shrikes were found sitting on their favorite hunting perches. I found
a large mixed flock of Laplands, Pipits and Eastern Meadowlarks in one
field that I settle in with to scan for something unusual. A Cooper's Hawk had
other plans. A couple of photos of the Cooper's hunt including one of it
crashing the party start at:
