Visited Las Vegas National Wildlife Refuge in Las Vegas, New Mexico.
Above, two kestrals. The one in the top picture has blood on it’s feet.
Two meadowlarks. Think the second one is a young one.
Sage thrasher
Swainson’s hawk
Below: Saw some white pelicans soaring and gliding at the refuge one day. The next day a very large flock were near my campground at Storrie Lake State Park. Half of them were preening and the other half were in a very large fishing group working their way along the shoreline. Pelicans are not common in this area, so I assume this is a flock migrating south (like me).
