I had a Shrike feeding a begging young in Brownsville about three years ago.

Hi Brush,
I first found Loggerhead Shrikes breeding near Alamo, Hidalgo County in 1988.
They have slowly increased in this area since then. The book "Nesting birds
of a Tropical Frontier: Lower Rio Grande Valley of Texas" by Timothy Brush has
further information on South Texas records and even one for Mexico if I
remember correctly.
