Finally a beautiful morning for birding the Bahia Grande Unit of Laguna Atascosa NWR. Started out a bit foggy but we managed to get a pair of Aplomado Falcon near the Tower Gate. Once again the washout in the road is filled with water so we had to backtrack a bit. Cassin's Sparrow are skylarking and very visual. Most of the peeps seem to have move on. Only a few weeks left in this birding season. Tours only continue through the end of March and beginning to fill up so call for reservations. 956-748-3607 X111. Tours Thursday - Monday 8:30 - 12, Friday at 1 PM alternating between Bahia Grande and Laguna Atascosa. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: <ebird-checklist@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, Mar 14, 2015 at 1:46 PM Subject: eBird Trail Tracker Report - Laguna Atascosa NWR (LTC 024), Mar 14, 2015 To: dkelly163@xxxxxxxxx Laguna Atascosa NWR (LTC 024), Cameron, US-TX Mar 14, 2015 8:30 AM - 12:00 PM Protocol: eBird Trail Tracker Comments: Bahia Grande Unit from red gate to second bridge and Tower Gate 37 species Blue-winged Teal 10 Northern Shoveler 2 Red-breasted Merganser 9 Northern Bobwhite 1 Double-crested Cormorant 32 American White Pelican 27 Brown Pelican 3 Great Blue Heron 5 Great Egret 12 Snowy Egret 2 Reddish Egret 4 Turkey Vulture 2 Osprey 2 Harris's Hawk 2 Greater Yellowlegs 3 Willet 8 Long-billed Curlew 2 Western Sandpiper 35 Laughing Gull 25 Ring-billed Gull 2 Forster's Tern 16 Golden-fronted Woodpecker 2 Crested Caracara 4 Aplomado Falcon 2 Eastern Phoebe 2 Scissor-tailed Flycatcher 1 Loggerhead Shrike 1 White-eyed Vireo 2 Chihuahuan Raven 4 Horned Lark 16 Curve-billed Thrasher 7 Northern Mockingbird 12 Orange-crowned Warbler 1 Cassin's Sparrow 14 Savannah Sparrow 13 Red-winged Blackbird 1 Eastern Meadowlark 32 -- Donna and Alvin Kelly RV Volunteers Home is where you park it!
