Good afternoon Texbirders, 
 

I backed up the walk lead by Dave Elder in the park on a wonderful and
birdie morning. Below is the list that I counted and the groups also
added Black-bellied Whistling Duck, Red-shouldered  Hawk, American
Bittern, Ruby-throated Hummingbird, and Rufous Hummingbird. 

 

My highlights on the morning are of the continued presence of a Black
Phoebe around Alligator Lake, a Peregrine Falcon that seemed to have
dived after a Ringed Kingfisher and a beautiful wild drake Mallard. 

 

 

Join us on Wednesday, Saturday, or Sunday for a guided bird walk and
this Saturday is Breakfast with the Birds so call to reserve your spot. 

 

See you on the trails.
