First attraction in a year!


Since we left Biloxi last March, we haven’t gone anywhere you would need to go into a building, unless it was absolutely necessary. We met with our attorney to update our estate planning which had to be signed and notarized in person. We had to do the same to close on our new home in Sun City Anthem. But yesterday, given that we have both had our 2
nd dose of the Covid vaccination, we splurged and visited the Henderson Bird Viewing Preserve. We actually had to go into the office and check in, but we masked up and took the plunge.


We had a great time, even though it was a bit chilly. We walked the entire preserve, and despite the considerable number of cars in the parking lot, we bumped into very few people, most of them masked. We spotted the normal water birds, but had some fun looking for more unusual spots. We found a Red-Faced Coot, which is a jet black ducklike water bird, with streak of deep red on the front of its face, and a bright yellow tip of its bill. We spotted one Snowy Egret dinning in the shallows of Pool 5. For the time of year, we really felt like we did good!

Talk to you soon.
