Nesting Season Is In Full Swing!

Black-bellied Whistling Ducks in the rookery in mid February?




In a few months we will be seeing night herons standing over their babies as seen below.




But for now, it looks like the whistling ducks are ahead of schedule.





The Black-bellied Whistling ducks are usually nesting at Lake Martin in April.


If you need to keep up with the where and when of nesting bird activities in south central Louisiana, I am planning to operate in several new rookeries this spring and may be able to offer information on locations and timeframes.
