Shelia Hargis and I drove around the ponds at Hornsby Bend in Austin this morning. We stopped and scoped the drying beds thoroughly and did not see the reported Piping Plover there. As a bonus, on the road that goes between pond 2 and the river we saw a Pileated Woodpecker. Also had Bank Swallows on the West end if pond 1 West.
