I have been lazy about posting birds sighted 3/29 in New Mexico. Some
were:
Ruddy duck
Coots
Mallards and gadwalls and pintails
Bufflehead
Cormorant
Kestrels
American avocet
Scaup
pied-billed grebe
stilt
egret
Great Blue Heron
Cliff and VG Swallows
snow geese (trumpeter swans?)
cinnamon and blue-winged teal
road runner
Western meadowlark
pheasant
grackle
harrier
flycatcher
kildeer

Coyote (2 plump)
Prairie dogs


We had something that took off before we could really see it. Its bill
turned down like an ibis and it seemed to be mallard-head greenish. Any
ideas?
