Which "Waterbird" species did we see?


. . . on our 11/15/08 field trip?

(The Clark's Grebe, LEFT, is not considered "rare," but it is less common to see than its look-alike first-cousin Western Grebe that we also observed on 11/15/08.)

For the answer to the question posed above, see the birds in the photos on the left.

Can you answer which ones are shown?

See you in class -- as it's STILL NOT TOO late to register (www.merritt.edu). (see below entries).

There's two more "lectures" (11/20 and 12/4/08) and four more field trips (11/22, 12/6, 12/7, & 12/14/08).
