NevadaWolf<p>Visited the Carson City WWTP Wetlands on Saturday, between the freeway and the sewage plant (I know, lovely location) where a lot of different birds settle in to enjoy the many reeds and ponds in the area. Tried using eBird again and, while I like having the record, it's just a pain to try to keep count (and putting X on everything seems less than ideal). I like that iNaturalist pulls the metadata from the photo to tag the date/time/location vs having to select a vague location to submit a checklist.</p><p>Did meet with a few others out photographing the birds. One gentleman from Carson Valley had a super fast camera to snap multiple pictures, as I was busy trying to focus. We stood around for a bit identifying different birds. Which is when I learned my new 10x50 binoculars are better than my camera! I could see ducks on the far side of the pond clearly that my poor camera could only get a fuzzy shape for. Hurmmmm, have to ponder this.</p><p>Trying something new. I'll post the best four pictures here and then if you'd like to see the rest of the birds I saw, they'll be uploaded here: <a href="https://metapixl.com/p/NevadaWolf/550849699829402094" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">metapixl.com/p/NevadaWolf/5508</span><span class="invisible">49699829402094</span></a> (It's just an experiment).</p><p><a href="https://birds.town/tags/EagleValley" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EagleValley</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/CarsonCity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CarsonCity</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/Nevada" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Nevada</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/Birds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Birds</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/Birding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Birding</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/BirdWatching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BirdWatching</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/Wildlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Wildlife</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/NaturePhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NaturePhotography</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/WildlifePhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WildlifePhotography</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/BirdPhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BirdPhotography</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/BirdsOfMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BirdsOfMastodon</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/BlackPhobe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BlackPhobe</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/RedWingedBlackbird" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RedWingedBlackbird</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/Mallard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Mallard</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/SongSparrow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SongSparrow</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/CinnamonTeal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CinnamonTeal</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/Gadwell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Gadwell</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/MarshWren" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MarshWren</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/CanadaGoose" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CanadaGoose</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/WilsonsSnipe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WilsonsSnipe</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/AmericanCoot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AmericanCoot</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/LesserScaup" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LesserScaup</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/PiedBilledGrebe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PiedBilledGrebe</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/RuddyDuck" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RuddyDuck</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/Canvasback" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Canvasback</span></a></p>
