[cobirds] TRICOLORED HERON-yes on 7-7-13 at Holcim Wetlands

I should have posted last night that the TRICOLORED HERON was still present at Holcim Wetlands east of Florence but thought others might post.  I ran into Glenn Walbek and Steve Larson yesterday morning at Holcim Wetlands and both had already seen the TRICOLORED HERON.  I walked over to the west side of the wetlands where it has most regularly been foraging since it's return and spotted it partially obstructed by the cattails. 

At home yesterday afternoon I was visited again by my neighborhood Gray Catbird family.  The parent catbird(s) first brought the fledgling(s) to my yard 2 days ago.  I watched the parent bird(s) busily foraging for insects to feed the young and got to watch a fledgling several times.  I have been receiving visits by singing male Gray Catbirds and subsequently by parents with fledglings every year since a pair nested right below my dining room window.  I have posted photos of the parent(s) and a fledgling on my Birds and Nature blog.
