Our Spring and Summer

We have had a busy spring and summer so far with family and friends. It started in Klamath Falls where it was still winter at the end of April. We were there to see what kind of birds were flying through heading north. With the help of 2 friends we were able to Identify 3 new birds for us. We stayed at Round Lake RV Resort.

We did not expect snow. Our first birding trip was supposed to be in the morning. As it turned out we did make it out with the car and the snow melted by the time we came back.

Dick got some great pictures of this Swainson’s Hawk at the Lower Klamath Refuge.

We thought there was something wrong with all the White Pelicans we saw because they had this funny growth on on their beaks. We found out that they grow this in the breeding season both males and females.

The next stop was Coquille Elks and Dick’s Mom’s 90 Birthday.
