BIRDING LAKE EWAUNA
This afternoon I birded the Wing Watchers birding trail along the western shore of Lake Ewauna, just at the western end of downtown Klamath Falls.
The Wing Watcher’s trail meanders through both riparian, and wetlands habitats. Today, for birding, was not an especially good day, but the weather was great, the skies clear, and the temperature a mild 75 degrees Fahrenheit. I did enjoy the outing though, the sights, the sounds, and the smells.

Brown Headed Black Bird (Cowbird)
American Robin
Yellow Headed Black Bird
Brewer’s Black Bird
Double Crested Cormorant
Caspian Tern
Killdeer
