South Farm = Windy weekend

I went to South Farm on Sunday. Damn it was windy! Didn't stop the Dragonflies from being out, although it was a little trickier to get good looks at the butterflies and birds. I added 1 Oktibbeha County bird: Wilson's Snipe (Gallinago delicata). I have this bird for Clay and Noxubee Counties, but not for Lowndes Co., which as it turns out is my newest county to break 100! I went with Terry to Columbus Lake to look for a Franklin's Gull that he'd found, which had since disappeared, and managed to spot several county birds in the process.

Eastern Pondhawk - Erythemis simplicicolis
Common Whitetail - Libellula lydia
Female Eastern Pondhawk
Damselfly. Not even going to venture a guess.
Bluets?
Solitary Sandpiper - Tringa solitaria
