Field Notes

Description:

Small to medium birds found near water

Habitat:

The is the convergence of two rivers, just outside our room. The rock brought cormorants, pratincoles and more.

Notes:

I believe the ID is correct as our host had these identified for me, but my notebook apparently crawled somewhere on its own. He said they were less common migrants to the area than the collared variety shown in my book.
