Life is the spice of variety

Argentina to Florida to Canada...

According to E-Nature, "Bobolink migration is one of the most spectacular for any land bird;
an individual from the northern portion of the breeding range can fly a 20,000-mile round-trip
each year between the Canadian prairie and the grasslands of Argentina. Bobolinks leave their
South America wintering grounds in mid-March and begin appearing along the U.S. Gulf coast in early April."

I photographed this flock today (April 29) just south of Arcadia. By mid-May some of them will
be landing on Canadian soil.
