First of the season. Also note that I saw no Westerns today; this is not all that unusual an occurrence along Farm-Market Road this time of year.

Meadowlark, Eastern 1 @Bosque del Apache NWR

I still hate calling meadowlarks around here. I'm going with Lillian's here because of the contrastier face pattern and whiter malar.

Route Served as deck interpreter on the Flight Deck for Festival of the Cranes during their noon-to-four shift. Winds gusting to 60. Saw maybe 30 visitors all day. Did not bird; the yellowlegs flock was near this deck.
