We took several trips around the Farm Loop, and saw a number of species (Western Meadowlark, Ring-necked Pheasants, several different Raptors, etc.) including this beautiful little Killdeer. I decided that I really need to get a window mount of some sort - many birds along the loop would spook if I got out of my car, and I discovered how awkward it is to try and balance a ton of equipment on a car window edge (even using some clothing as a bean-bag of sorts).
