This morning I was relaxing at the SPI Convention Center water feature when
Robin Zurovec mentioned to me that a Golden-winged Warbler had been spotted
earlier today at Resaca de la Palma State Park. I had decided that today was
the last day of Spring Migration birding for me -- and insofar as I had dipped
on my number one target bird for migration -- I zipped over to the state park.
Ranger Ruben Rangel and I scoured the tram loop for the Golden-winged, and we
found beautiful Blackburnian, Magnolia, Bay-breasted, Chestnut-sided, Yellow,
American Redstart and Black-and-White warblers -- but no Golden-winged. Ruben
suggested I check the parking lot area before I left, and as I wandered near
the park hosts' area I spotted one, and perhaps a second Golden-winged working
in the trees. Woo-hoo!
Here is a photo of the Golden-winged and some highlight birds today from the
state park, SPI and shorebirding yesterday on Rangerville Road:
