TexBirders,
I have not been out at all this spring because we were packing,
moving from Harlingen to Weslaco, and unpacking...AAARRRGGGHHH!!!
So today I spent a few hours at Quinta Mazatlan looking for the two
rare hummingbirds that have been there for about a week now. The
female Blue-throated was coming regularly to a Coral Bean Tree on the
west side of the building near a cast iron swing. OK, one half of the
chase down...
The Broad-billed Hummingbird was reported from the Coral Bean Tree on
the south side of the building. I spent over about two hours in the
area, but no Broad-billed. Then John Brush walked by, the bird
magically appeared, and he called my attention to it...thanks John!

Enjoy!
