I didn't get long to bird in Pecos County this afternoon but spent some
time in Iraan (pronounced Ira-Anne). The best birds were a female
Phainopepla in town (photographed), a Golden-fronted Woodpecker, American
Wigeon (also at the golf course pond ) and Vermilion Flycatcher at Iraan
Park, and American Robin, Wilson's Snipe, Lincoln's Sparrow, and Belted
Kingfisher at the sewage ponds behind the Memorial Garden Cemetery.
After a day and a half of birding, we ended up with 70 species in Pecos
County. Not bad for such a dry place that seems largely devoid of birds
life away from a few hot spots with water.
