I just had 32 Caracara in one grain field which was being disced. The field is
a mile north and just east of the intersection of FM 362 to the north of Hebert
Road in Waller County. There were also 15 or more Red-tailed Hawks, several
Northern Harriers and a suspicious distant bird sitting in the field that was
probably a White-tailed Hawk.
