Whirling Phalaropes





Late start, but made a long rollabout, all the way to Owen's Valley Overlook, North of Bishop on 395..then back to the North Shore of Mono Lake to see what Birds are about...Wilson's Phalaropes this time....faraway digi pics and clip..took awhile...tourists kept coming to the Little View Platform...bouncebounce...two came with wine and fruit...and talked and visited quietly with one another while I was doing pics...and didn't invite me!...hmmph...a fine day though..sunny blueblue hot along 395...cool in Tuolumne...Flowers still blooming along Tioga...saw One Hawk...and lost sight right overhead..Hawk just disappeared during a blink..so no pic..had hoped to see Big Wings...but just Buzzards, and too many ro Deer aside the
Road....more to report, and pics, for sometime....oh...Phalaropes a new bird, for me...
