but constant downpours soaked them

{{gwi:1364910}}From 5-21-09, fish hatchery
and at least one died
With a storm system heading our way, DB and I drove to the top of Poppy Mnt this morning where I'd scouted a perfect birding spot near the top. The fields hadn't been mowed and Meadowlarks were everywhere
From 5-21-09, fish hatchery
I was right about the birding spot

fledgling Red-winged Blackbird, 10:17 a.m.

It tried to stretch, lost its balance, and tipped over

but soon flew off into the grass
I started swimming in one of the large, remote ponds, coming close to the nesting Red-winged Blackbirds but about then DB complained that it had started raining so we headed back
