2021 03 26 Louisville Swamp
On March 26th I headed back to Louisville Swamp for a sunset hike. I had been there towards the end of last summer and it had the most overgrown "trails" I've ever hiked on but I did see some cool birds because of that including my closest ever look at Turkey Vultures. Anyway obviously it's not overgrown anymore, but there is some serious flooding on some parts of the trail. One of the trails is basically just a stream right now and even the trail I managed to hike had one point that was 3-4 inches deep and about 10-15 feet across.
I wasn't expecting a lot of birds to be there yet and my expectations were correct but it was a cool nature hike and I did see my first non-flying Sandhill Cranes of the season across a little lake/pond from me. I even got a short video of one of them doing their famous mating dance! I also saw more bugs than I've seen anywhere in the twin cities so far this year which is good for birds :)
