With the possible rain the next 4 Days I decided to go Birding. I went first to the Anzalduas County Park before it got to hot. Then to NABA I find it is normally much cooler there because of all the shade. Also the heat doesn't seem to get to the Butterflies like it do to the birds. I will be putting photos on Flicker tomorrow.
