Had another great we= ekend at the Leakey Hacienda. Having perfect habitat
out there in the hill = country really makes a difference. We have 11 acres,
with woods, prairie &a= mp; a running creek. We never know what bird will
show up. This is what we = had this weekend.

The Elf Owl was calling Sunday = morning and someone didn't bother to wake
me! We feel it's the same bird th= at has been heard in town, since we are
quite close to town. 

The 7 = Fulvous Whistling Ducks were flying a V formation. They had black
wings wit= h no white on them. They did not vocalize. They held their necks
out with a= little downward and back up look to them. Their necks were a bit
lighter t= han their bodies. We thought they were Black-bellied at first
thennoticed = no white on the wings. The only other this they could have
beenwould be Gr= eater White-fronted Geese but it's way to early, they have
white a white pa= tch on their rump and their were no vocalizations. We
watched them flying f= or over a mile in the fading light of day. This could
be a 1st county recor= d. They were headed Southeast.
