Unfortunately, this birding tower in the center of the lagoon is worn down and not safe to observe from. The staff at Palo Verde have, however, begun to finish the dock extending into the wetland.

A real birder catches them
I think part of the reason I am into herps more than birds is because they are easier to catch; I like, no, need to catch things.
Boa (again) found a Jacana the other night and we caught it with a cast net. They have a bizarre spike on the anterior margin of their wings, just about where the thumb would be in a bat. Does anyone know what it’s for?
