I stopped by Harrison Lake today and was treated to a nice variety of
birds. The Southern Magnolia tree is about bare of fruit, so activity is
low there, the sun was hot, so I tried a different place near the front
road along the canal in the shade. Though it was slow, there was a good
flow of birds through there and I got a first for me...a yellow billed
cuckoo!! It didn't stay around long, so I only managed a couple shots,
but I got him!
