Texbirders,
After our morning bird survey at Travis Audubon's Baker Sanctuary in Cedar
Park, Shelia and I drove down from Austin yesterday and were excited to
find the BT Godwit at Brazoria NWR, 1/2 mile south of FM 2004 on CR 227.
For those of you who have not gone yet, the Friends of Brazoria group had a
blue EZ-Up awning at the location with two members of their group staffing
it, handing out info and pointing out the godwit to all who came. By the
time we arrived near 4:00, they figured they had shown it to some 200 or so
people! It sure took the guesswork out of finding the correct location.
Thanks Friends!
This was our first visit to Brazoria but definitely won't be our last. That
was a birdy place! We took the time to count the pond that contained the
Godwit as well as the ponds across 227 and all the way to the "T" in the
road and tallied right around 40 species.
It was an enjoyable drive with a positive outcome.
