Hi, all!
Best bird today was a female-type Black-and-white Warbler along the Resaca
Trail; best butter was a Silver-banded Hairstreak along the Cattail Lakes
Trail, and best mammal was a big ol' Striped Skunk along the side of the
road! No Yellow-green Vireo, but other highlights included a whistling Gray
Hawk, lots of good looks at Yellow-billed Cuckoos and Groove-billed Anis,
and a female Anhinga and a Green Kingfisher at the Rio Grande overlook at the
end of the Jaguarundi Trail. Pictures (only of leps this time) and
recordings are here:
