Five miles of hiking netted a few good birds this morning at Yturria Brush unit
of the Lower Rio Grande Valley NWR west of La Joya on US 83 in Hidalgo County.
Best were two Green-tailed Towhees, two White-crowned Sparrows and ten
Black-throated Sparrows. It's still really dry but recent rains have a few
grass plants and forbs greening up.
