Constitucion - Other Highlights

The best of the rest at Presa de la Constitucion came in the form of a large flock (over 100) of flighty  Horned Larks foraging in the fields by the edge of the reservoir.  There were also lots of Savannah Sparrows around and individuals of Loggerhead Shrike, Eastern Meadowlark, Yellow-headed Blackbird and Red-winged Blackbird.

6 Laughing Gulls present were the first Gulls I've seen in Queretaro as well, although Laughing, Franklin's and Ring-billed have all previously been reported.
