Lacassine National Wildlife Refuge (Louisiana) was created in 1937 to provide breeding grounds for migratory birds and other animals. It is currently home to Mottled Ducks, Roseate Spoonbills, Fulvous Whistling Ducks, and more, and is one of the best places to bird in Southern Louisiana. Join Derek and Ryan as they look for birds at this refuge, in an attempt to help Ryan pick up a few lifers and to explore some new habitats.

I live on a rice and crawfish farm 15 miles from Lacassine. There are literally thousands of birds on my property every day!

Looks like a great place to visit! I saw some roseate spoonbills in SC, but not that many of them. Glad that you were able to get a good look at them. I love the color of them and the unusual bills!

That was so cool!!! I am astonished to understand now just what kind of nifty creatures lived in our literal back yard when I was a teen. We saw Mottled Ducks constantly in the bayou areas around my grandfather's house, and he told me over and over "it's just a duck." (He was not at all a birder.) Well! "Just a duck" is MUCH cooler than I thought! I really thought they were simply some kind of urban, semi-feral creatures, like the mallards and white geese that live in ponds and parks out in western Texas. Very calm around humans, though they also do not tolerate any foolishness, hehe... The way the ducks in the bayou acted, it was very clear that they interacted with humans plenty. Probably, folks tossed food to them, or maybe they just hung out nibbling on all the lawns up and down the bayou with no one fussing at them. I can remember seeing them in someone's yard, and the house owner walked down to the water's edge. The duck just walked away from the human like a New York City pigeon - gave him a bad look but wasn't at all afraid!

Thanks for the comment Sonja! It’s interesting because many “wild” species become tame in those urban parks even stuff you would expect to want nothing to do with people

I would love to see a roseate spoonbill, but I won't be getting any wading birds till next year! Up here in Canada there is already snow on the ground! Great video as always, and keep up the good work!

Also, when I see how many ‘hits’ you get even when you take a short trip, makes me want to try. I think because you have studied to learn the birds you might see, seems to make it more productive. I have been a casual birder along time but I am now trying to make lists which is kind of confusing.(Which type lists, which notebook, where’d I put it? Thinking all should go in “Right in Rain” then post to: Neighborhood, Wings over Florida, Life List. For instance I should have sketched and taken notes on a hawk I saw this evening as I never figured out which it was. I am currently reading “Sibley’s Birding Basics” which is helpful. Thanks!

We definitely do a lot of research to see the species we’re after! Glad you’re feeling a bit inspired

Could you please list more tips to tell the various Ibises apart. Ie: That white-faced didn’t seem to have much white on its face. In SW Florida we have lots of ibises. The ones that have white with a lot of patches of mottled brown must be immatures, but I wonder if there are hybrids. Much thanks if you can

We have an article on our website about telling between white-faced and glossy ibis that you may find helpful!
