Male Northern Cardinal

 

American Oystercatcher

My sister-in-law took this photo on Cape Cod this past week. 

In all her years on the Cape she had never seen an American Oystercatcher...
the bird that Shiloh's leadership brought an increase of 45%. 
She was, at the time, telling a friend about Shiloh, so was stunned to see it. 
Since then, she has learned that Shiloh taggedsome American Oystercatchers before on that very beach.  It was a good moment.
