Hi Dan, and all, Back in the late 80's Willie Sekula and I had a couple White-rumps spend most of June, and well into July as I recall at Mitchell Lake in SAT. If memory serves, they seemed first summer birds, as we'd expect from those not continuing north...... and that seems more likely this date than an early fall migrant.
