Hi, all!
Took visiting birders John and Margaret out today to chase some rarities and
see some life birds; Crimson-collared Grosbeak is still being seen at
Frontera along with some Wood Ducks, Bullock's Oriole (and a new
Groove-billed Ani) is being seen at Estero, and the Greater Pewee is still
at Anzalduas; we also had a Pine Warbler there and three Burrowing Owls at
Granjeno. My lep friends can comment on the weird hairstreak we had at
Estero! We were wondering if we broke 100 species, and we did!! Pictures
can be seen on my Facebook page:
