Bird Sighting at Squaw Creek
While we were camping at big lake, we went to Squaw Creek Wildlife Refuge. We enjoyed hiking on a trail through the bluffs and drove on the auto tour loop. On the hiking trail an indigo bunting sang to us and showed off is lovely indigo feathers, we also sighted an Baltimore oriole. On the auto tour loop we saw wild turkey, American white pelicans, great blue heron, snowy egret, spotted sandpiper, belted kingfisher, red headed wood pecker, a Doe and her fawn, wood ducks, and mallard ducks. Rachael and I enjoyed watching Pat and Tracy and Elliot in the car behind us!
