Simon and Sara's Birding Adventures. After completing our 2012 Big Year we are now trying to add around 100 LIFERS to our life list. Join us as we go birding! Tuesday, July 17, 2012. It's been a few days since out last birding adventure! We went to Sweetwater Wetlands, where there was reports of a Peregrine Falcon. That would be a nice addition, but we did not see that falcon. We did see a lot of dragonflies and other birds we already have on our list. I have some pictures of the things we saw there.

We didn't really see ...
