Raw, windy, cold day at the Flyway. Green-winged teal closeups are the best views of the day.

Nice to be back with a new computer. Looks like I didn't miss much! Here's one "test" photo from noon today as I get things set up anew.

November 9, 2020, 4:30pm -- Black-Bellied Plover --  Flyway

With these pictures, Merlin's ID says Black-Bellied Plover.  It's probably non-breeding adult or juvenile?  Thoughts?

Nice Plover pics, Clarinda. I'm not much for IDs on shorebirds, so probably what you found at Merlin.
Cold and rainy at the Flyway today. No pics to contribute.

Thanks, that ID didn't seem quite right, but works for today. LOL  Cold and rainy north of Kansas City also.

The color phases for BEs is just spectacular in variety. Great pics, Clarinda.

One of these days soon, the sandhill cranes will depart for warmer digs. So beautiful to see, and I just love their purring calls.

Snappy cold early this morning. Gorgeous young eagle perched on the post, waiting for its portrait. A big group of eagles gently gathered for food in the shallow water. Nothing really appetizing as they were not fighting, mostly watching.

If this sub adult ever ends up nesting under the observation of a camera, it will have a great identifier with that left eye. My compliments to the camera operator for the great closeups earlier today.

You are so right about the left eye spot. Is that a 5 o'clock spot?
