Buttertubs Marsh

I visited Buttertubs this morning before the rain set in and had good views of Wood Duck, American Wigeon, Pied-billed Grebes, Canada Geese and a Bewicks Wren shown.

While walking on the north side trail under the towering oak trees, acorns were falling and having glanced up I noticed at the top a flock of Band-tailed Pigeons feeding on the acorns.

Earlier on a fellow walker had mentioned that a cougar was sighted here yesterday and this young deer managed to elude it
