Yeah--my "right from the road" Gray Vireo was in Chisos Basin at Big Bend, right at the entrance to the campground. Like you said, too far west... :-( MB Mary Beth Stowe McAllen, TX _www.miriameaglemon.com_ (http://www.miriameaglemon.com/) In a message dated 4/11/2014 8:34:57 P.M.

I won't share the location if desired.. Just know someone that this an ultimate jinx bird though he has heard them. You can reply off line. Lots of replies but most are much too far west...Edwards and Kinney Co.s are marginally within range of his time in Austin but something closer would be better. ********************************************************************** Brush Freeman 503-551-5150 Cell 120 N.
