Bahia Grande tour bird count this morning was a little low with 41species,
but still managed to provide excellent looks at a pair of Aplomado Falcon
and 2 separate pairs of Chihuahuan Raven. The wind was blowing up the black
neck feathers to reveal the snowy white underneath that gave them their
former name of White-necked Raven. Another big surprise was the flyover of
a Groove-billed Ani on Hwy 100 just outside the tower gate.
Tours are beginning to fill up so call for reservations. 956-748-3708 X111.
Tours Thursday - Monday 8:30 - 12, Friday 1 PM, alternating between Bahia
Grande and Laguna Atascosa.
