There was a notably early Red Knot on the mudflats on the south side of Hwy
4 at Boca Chica NWR this morning.  Even more of a surprise, to me at least,
was that it was in non-breeding plumage.  Perhaps a second year?
Other birds along Hwy 4 included an early Piping Plover and a pair of
Aplomado Falcons (the female with bands on each leg, the male unbanded).
