Hi, all!
Just a quick note to say that, despite the lack of warblers, I had a
record-breaking mid-April Hidalgo County Big Day count yesterday, with 138
species! The best bird was probably the group of Black Skimmers at Delta
Lake.
Other interesting sightings include a male Redhead at Anzalduas (along
that little marsh where you enter), an early (?) Eastern Wood Pewee at
Frontera, several lingering wintering things, LOTS of Indigo and Painted
Buntings,
Beardless Tyrannulets out the wazoo (one was singing his little heart out
at Bentsen), and more!
Full trip report and photos and recordings later--gotta run!
