Texbirders,
In case anybody is going to look for Mountain Plovers around Granger over
Thanksgiving, I found them at two locations on a soggy, long-way home from work
this evening. Two birds were foraging in the field SW of the sharp-L turn on CR
360. At least 12 birds were foraging in the field NW of the CR 346/348
intersection (This flooded field, at least for today, allowed uncommon looks at
the plovers-they were actually foraging on what goes for mudflats in the ag
fields!).
A Burrowing Owl was on CR 352 and the lake itself had very few waterfowl (but
did have two distant swallows foraging low over the water-I expected Cave but
they appeared to be Tree although I wouldn't swear to it).
Cheers,
Tim Fennell
