Bird on a Dock – Maybe not what you think.

Sam Crowe , 2022 –
I think the plants are a type of dock. Photographed at Hagerman May 14. The plants were quite colorful. The Dickcissels were abundant and the males were shouting out their territorial claims. My experience is that after nesting takes place the Dickcissels can be difficult to find.
Pretty nice video of the bird on the dock, and on a tree, singing different songs

Each of us is made up of 60% water! So, how can we be more involved with caring for the water in our environment? Stream Team and Texas Water Specialists are two great opportunities.
