Good morning Texbirders, a lot of birders out this morning for our
birdwalk, which started out slow but really picked up out at Pintail Lakes.
Both Virginia Rail & Sora, lots of ducks, waders, & shorebirds to scope. A
pair of Green Kingfishers, Vermillion & Least Flycatchers rounded things
out. Another birder not with our group saw Sedge Wren, as well.
Birdwalks Friday & Saturday at 8:30AM. Come out and enjoy your national
wildlife refuge!
