Here are yesterdays count results from the Baytown Nature Center for July.
Extremely high tides kept shore bird numbers down since there were no
exposed beaches for them. My thanks to everyone who participated on this warm
morning. There were 5 other participants. I might add the Basket flowers were
beautiful and we should see continued blooming as a result of the recent
rains.
