Bird watching


I spent Sunday bird watching with my father in Jean Lafitte park. It should be spelled Laffite, as that is how the man in question spelled his name! I spotted and he identified. It was really exciting and here are pictures of what we saw. The pileated woodpecker was pretty spectacular and fairly uncommon, though we also saw some hawks, merlins maybe, and as creatures they are always impressive.
