Lagoon is quite full, duck blinds are almost under water. A kingfisher dove in the water when we first stepped out of the car, caught a fish. A Marsh Hawk about 300 yds. towards the ranch from the car, maybe that's what we tought was an eagle. Flying low, typical Marsh Hawk, female. Back at the car at 2:45. White-tailed kite near outer gate, flying 50' up or so. First one I've seen out here. RCA cypress grove: flushed up 2 barn owls, forced them towards the end of the grove, caught up with them, flushed them out in the open, they flew back towards the road head. One appeared alot smaller than the other. Also saw Black Phoebe and Loggerhead Shrike. Sooner Bay: Great Blue Heron, some more avocets and peeps. Not a very high density of birds. Tide flats are exposed now,
