Sometimes we see more birds than reptiles on our outings.

tell me if I'm wrong, but your Black-crowned Night Heron looks more like another Yellow-crowned Night Heron to me. Awesome birds!

Very nice. Prothonotary Warblers are one of my favorite warblers.

Lovely birds. Good job.
Re: Birds of the Atchafalaya basin
I could be wrong Ted, I thought it was a young Black Crown. Im much better at id'ing snakes lol
Re: Birds of the Atchafalaya basin
Yellow-crowned have much longer legs for the tarsi and feet extend well beyond that tail in flight. Not a flight shot there but does appear that the legs are long enough to do that. It's a solid "mark"
