We had another bird class on Monday. this time we went to Emerald Pond in Ramsey. We saw mallards, red winged blackbirds, robins, grackles, starlings, blue winged teal, coots, Canadian geese, wood ducks, a bald eagle, a great blue heron, yellow rumped warblers, and a kingfisher. The kingfisher is my favorite. A starling was chasing it for some reason and they zoomed by right in front of us several times. They zigged and zagged fast-it was like watching a Star Wars action shot. The kingfisher gave out a rattling call, "Leave me alone!"
