When I lived in Abilene, TUVU wintered just south of town but were absent in and north of town in winter: literature (or KBB!) would be far more helpful than my current personal experience, especially state wide. -h On Feb 16, 2014, at 14:05, "Stevan Hawkins" <shawkins4@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: Heidi: Is the lack of wintering TUVUs true of all of far West Texas? How far east does that lack of wintering TUVUs extend? From San Antonio to Luling TUVUs are present year round. Thanks!

So almost a week early for these guys, interesting! Post also had a pair of Black Phoebes (our high count), and all three species were represented. Warm morning, but quite pleasant. Lark Sparrow (1) got flagged on Post Road, as it should have. Many leps out, can't wait to see what spring brings!
