Greetings All: Five of us were at Stanford Park, Plains, Yoakum County, Texas bright and early this morning. One had to leave at about 9:30. Two more showed up a little later in the morning. Bottom line: seven birders scoured the park, from top to bottom - and from 7:30 AM to 2:30 PM, with no Slate-throated Restart luck at all. That is not to say the bird is not there - merely that we covered the area as well as is possible for such a large park and did not see the bird. I will post a list of highlights later - folk weren't happy about missing The Bird but most seemed to be pretty pleased by what they did come across.
