Birding Valles Caldera National Preserve New Mexico + Redondo Campground + Vanlife #birding #birds
DnA’s Birding Adventures: We’re #birding in #newmexico this fall. This 12th video takes us to #vallescaldera Valles Caldera National Preserve, New Mexico. It’s an ancient and dormant Super Volcano. We’ll drive through and hike the Obsidian Valley Trail (at least partly). I’m obsessed with Obsidian! This culminates our New Mexico trip with a BANG (lol pun intended--You know, a Volcano’s eruption is a Bang). We got 20 new 2024 birds all together during our trip to New Mexico.

I was amazed to see the Herring Gull eating a sea lamprey - makes me wonder if the lamprey could attach to the stomach of the gull, and eat it from the inside out! The only Whooping Crane I have seen was in the farm lands in western Lenawee County Michigan back in June 2016. It seemed to be paired with a Sandhill Crane. They returned in the area in spring for a number of years.

The sea gull seemed to make sure it was dead before engulfing it whole by knocking it against the rock SEVERAL times. We were only that close to a rail a few times, the Clapper Rail in FL and the Virginia Rail at Lon Hagler. This Rail had a hurt toe, so we let him/her walk all the way down the boardwalk to stay out of its way. That’s interesting about the Whooping Crane hanging out with the Sandhill Crane.

      I live in the lower peninsula but have been coming to the UP for 50 years. Two family members graduated from NMU in Marquette and one worked on a Great Lakes freighter . I used to fish a lot and am very interested in wildlife. I have yet to see or hear a wolf or a moose . Even a few cougars are around up there . I know Whitefish Point is popular for bird migrations. There are peregrines around Pictured Rocks. The UP is a great place if you like history , waterfalls , wildlife and all kinds of outdoor activities. The bugs are usually an issue late May until mid-August but as you noticed it seems to be a record year for them.

I was standing a good 50 feet from it and a large group was about 30 feet away taking pictures.It was on the other side of a rail fence eating blueberries. It gave them a bluff charge and then came towards me and climbed the rail fence a few feet from me. It was never a threat . I got it all on video. The freighter Michipicoten developed a 13 foot long crack in the hull near Isle Royale a few weeks ago. It made it safely to harbor. I do not think there will be a disaster like the Fitz again due to modern electronics on the boats. If big waves come up they will anchor in a protected area , sometimes for a few days.

    Why can’t you add when your trip takes place? Surely you’re not there in july. I’ve had to make this request to several bird trip utube sites.

      Good point. I was pretty good when I started producing birding content, but have recently forgotten to add the time. It's usually on the list of birds found. Wifi's limited on our trip this time since we're camping. Our videos are within a week of the birding adventure. This is from early June. Oh, and thanks for watching. 😊

    Fantastic video. Watson Lake is one of my fave local birding spots. So glad to see others enjoying it as well! The goldens and swallows are always a highlight there -- and as you noted warblers of every sort abound in spring. (Shame someone cut down that old cottonwood by the river at timestamp 14:49, though. It's stood there since I was a kid.) I know those invasive flowers as "Dame's Rocket". They are rather pretty, aren't they? That's the first time I've seen them growing there.

      Thanks for watching! Yes, Dames Rockets. I think I called the "Sky" . We saw MANY big trees chopped down since the last time we were there. I wonder if they were dead or had an unmanageable fungus????!! Thanks for commenting too.

      Oh, Dave said it might have been that huge wind storm we had. Hmm

    Just came across your channel -- great footage of the downies at River's Edge! I'd no idea it was such a birding hotspot until I painted there the other day. Thanks for sharing. :)

      Thanks! I'd love to see your painting of it. Please share.

      Thanks! We live so close and actually don't get down there often. It's great for birding and also bike riding.
