TexBirders,
Returning home from an out-of-state birding trip over the weekend, Wayne Cherry
and I stopped to look around the Donley County Rest Area (US 287), and Wayne
spotted a literal tree-full of Yellow-headed Blackbirds...a sight I had never
seen before. We tried to get an exact count, but it was not possible. The
best I could do was between 55 and 60. For someone who sees this bird only on
rare occasions, it was something to behold.
A couple of pics, for any who are interested:

Good birding,
