I haven’t been out birding too much lately, but I did get a chance to see some cool birds at the balloon fiesta this past week: owls, a stork, a kiwi, and a penguin!
Some owls on an ark:

Ok, not real birds. But I did see a flock of Common Grackles flying around the field (new for my county list!).

Nice tie-in to the balloon festival, Matt!
Guess you can add that penguin to your Bernalillo list, right? :-)
Ha! Wasn’t there also a rooster or something? Good times.
