Thanks!
Jellis...I think that her youngsters were somewhere near and she was just being protective. Making herself big. I didn't hang around ....didn't want to stress her out any more.

Congratulations, We had a stray that ended up here in the bay area. It was a male non-breeding. http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/577...

Congrats Marta, your cute little bobolink has earned you Spotting of the Day!

Bobolinks have one of the longest migrations of all the New World bird species, traveling as far as 10,000 kilometers from their wintering grounds in the Southern hemisphere to breed in North America, a journey that takes up to two months. It is believed they navigate using the stars and the Earth's magnetic field.
