Sweetwater Wetlands Park


We didn't get out to Sweetwater Park till 9:30 am, after all we had to recover from our early start the day before. Despite the late start and a general feeling of the birds being not very active, we did have a good day.

Some highlights:

Rough-winged swallow



Ladder-backed woodpecker.  Bird of the Day!

Not just birds -


Turtles

This Cottontail rabbit was to fast for the camera!


But the absolute highlight of the day was spotting a bobcat standing still in the shade of a tree waiting for prey.



He noticed us watching, turned and stared right at us



And ran off down the trail.



Not bad for recycled sewage water, eh!
