Hey Texbirders, WOW! What a day at Estero. Lots of birds seen on on Saturday morning walk and we will do it all again tomorrow beginning at 8:30 AM. Western Tanager, Bufflehead, Hooded Oriole, Ovenbird, Groove-billed Ani are just a few of some great birds that were seen today, with many of them seen on the birdwalk and some seen this afternoon. Take a look at the list and if it's one that you need or want to see for your year list, come on down. OK, yall take care and see at Estero and remember, Bird for your health, Forget your worries, You'll be happier.
