Christine and I headed down to Pena Blanca Lake early yesterday morning in search of the Green Kingfisher.
Pena Blanca Lake is about ten miles from the US/Mexico border near Nogales. It is a beautiful lake (even if man-made). And it was quite "birdie". At times hard to decide what bird to photograph.
We didn't see the Green Kingfisher but did see and get nice photos of a Green Heron and a Belted Kingfisher plus the even rarer Yellow-green Vireo. Other good birds included:
Blue Grosbeak
Varied Bunting
Summer Tanager
Great Blue Heron
Green Heron
Wilson's Warbler
Yellow Warbler
Warbling Vireo
Bewicks Wren
Marsh Wren
I'll show off the Yellow-green Vireo today, with some of the others over the next couple of days:
