Media notes
Audio recording of blows done by the Limpkin (at 0:20, 0:22, and 0:31) with its bill while attempting to open a freshwater mussel. Recorded from a distance of 200-300 feet away. High volume and/or headphones needed for best listening.
Observation details
Continuing along the creek at the southern end of the SRA @ approximately 41.1547527, -96.1620896, where it was preening on the bank and foraging in the channel for freshwater mussels (it “caught” at least one and worked on opening it for the remainder of my observation of it). “Digibinned” photos and video.
