What a gathering! All surrounding a majestic centerpiece!

What a great s-cap, EA

Interesting exchange!

Very interesting!  We always think of bald eagles as fierce, but I guess any bird can be if challenged.

I am so grateful to RRP for the Flyway cam!  Beautiful sunrises and sunsets, and a wide variety of bird species to appreciate.  Sometimes I almost forget that we're biding time until the Decorah cams are back up.  ;)

Was off yesterday and just caught up on everyone's pics.  Great job by everyone, and Clarinda, liked the 4 different species in your pic!  I think of the flyway as a 'hub' where all the birds traveling somewhere else stop off to rest and socialize.  It's like Grand Central Station for fowl.  ;D

Today seemed to be a day for bathing and letting the wind dry them off.

Great pics KRD and T40

Grabbed this s-cap this morning, and I'm pretty sure the ducks are mallards, but have no idea what the small bird is that's fishing near them.  Anyone know?

NW, someone in the Flyway chat said, Sandpiper.

Googled Sandpiper - there are different types, but most look similar to this one.  :)
