Black-necked Stilt with Chicks
Uploaded: June 11, 2013
The rice is still low enough in California Rice Country that I was given a rare glimpse of a Black-necked Stilt and her 4 chicks (chick number four was hiding under mom). While out I saw three other stilts nesting out on the berms between fields. Soon the fields be teeming with chicks that will be well hidden in the taller rice.
