Two rare birds for this side of Missouri, a Harris's Sparrow and Scissor-tailed Flycatcher and a couple less common birds were discovered in Darst Bottoms so I spent some time there.

I've photographed them in Colorado but not in MO. It is No. 342 on my list of <a href="http://www.photosbyat.com/Birds/Missouri-Bird-Photos-H-Z/i-kWM2bzr"><i>Bird Species Photographed in Missouri</i></a>.<br />
<br />
We arrived at 10 am and searched for it until 12:02 pm when it was spotted ~85 yards across the field behind the bait shop.<br />
See red arrow (1) across field. I shot a few long distance photos from here. See first two thumbs below. <br />
Later I walked the fence line on left next to the bales down to where the weeds started, green arrow. <br />
Rest of shots were from there. When we first arrived at 10am, before getting out of van, a bird flew from the back right corner of the bait shop lot, low over the field to the flatbed to the right of arrow (2). Later, we realized this was probably the bird we've been looking for. UGH!<br />

A Long-tailed Jaeger showed up at Horseshoe Lake in Illinois. This is a fairly rare bird for the interier US. Lois and I went over there last Friday 7/17 but only saw the bird at a distance. I returned Sunday 7/19 and was able to see it much closer. This is my 313th bird species photographed in the <a href="http://www.photosbyat.com/Birds/Species-in-St-Louis-Circle/i-XGk4NWn"><i>St. Louis 50 mile Circle</i></a>.<br />
