It's time again for Frontera Audbon's nearly annual birdathon fundraiser.
http://fronteraaudubon.wordpress.com/
So, have you enjoyed any of the following rarities at the Frontera Audubon
thicket? Maybe even twitched a lifer?
Roadside Hawk
Gray Hawk
Zone-tailed Hawk
Mangrove Cuckoo
Green Kingfisher
Ringed Kingfisher
Elegant Trogon
Violet-crowned Hummingbird
Northern Beardless-Tyrannulet
Dusky-capped Flycatcher
Black-capped Vireo
Blue Mockingbird
Clay-colored Thrush
White-throated Thrush
Golden-crowned Warbler
Crimson-collared Grosbeak
Blue Bunting
Wow! What a list! Hard to imagine that all these magnificent birds have been
found within the bondaries of Frontera's fourteen acres. That doesn't even
consider the myriad of migrant flycatchers, vireos, warblers, thrushes,
grosbeaks, buntings and orioles that annually use the Thicket as a resting and
feeding stop on their long migratory jouney. And it wouldn't be possible
without the kind donations of birders like you. The operation and maintenance
of the Thicket depends on your generous gifts.
Saturday Feb. 23, Will Rektorik and I (AKA the Wild Turkeys) will be trying to
see how many species of birds we can see from 7 AM to 7PM. I'll be happy to
accept pledges of any size. You can pledge so much per species seen or a set
amount or even just buy a membership for the year. Any amount will be
appreciated.
Thank you,
Dan Jones, Weslaco
