We are currently "residents" of Midland Co, having migrated away from the
coast over the last month. Haven't posted Midland Co birds for sometime,
but this morning needs to be shared. After an early appointment, we arrived
at a local hotspot, a private residence,  about 11 AM and quickly found
some excellent migrants. The residents have an excellent backyard habitat
complete with small pond and water feature. With the continuing drought
conditions, birds are generally scarce to nonexistent.  We have a county
wide Big Day coming up on Saturday, May 3. If your in the area and want to
participate, give me a shout.
Highlights were Green-tailed and Spotted Towhees, Ovenbird, Rose-breasted
Grosbeak, and Summer Tanager with a fly-over of Black-crowned Night-heron.
