Birding tour Laguna Atascosa West Lake Road produced 68 species this
morning.
Waterfowl numbers are down, but there is still an amazing number of birds
out there.
Only a handful of Sandhill Crane and Snow Goose numbers are smaller, too.
So many Little Blue Herons in one place, amazing.
Sprague's Pipit didn't disappoint us.
Only 4 weeks of birding tours left this season.
Tours seven days a week alternating between Laguna Atascosa
and Bahia Grande; call for reservations. 956-244-2019
