A Brown Pelican photographed at Lake Bastrop is a very nice inland find 6/1

photographed on 6/4,8 at Decker Lake in Travis County.
A Caspian Tern described at Hornsby Bend on 6/4 was a good find.
A pair of Brown-crested Flycatchers were on Kellam Lane in the Elroy area
of Travis County on 6/9.
An Osprey is a nice bird to see in June in the area. One was described at
Lake Bastrop on 6/8.
A Willet was described at Hornsby Bend on 6/2.
American Redstarts are getting late with reports from an Austin home 6/9
and a bird photographed at Warbler Woods 6/5 in Guadalupe County.
I would love to hear reports from the area. There's stuff out there, but
it is hard to see from the sofa.
