Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Dear Texbirders, We have a very hectic week ahead of us here at the Edinburg World Birding Center. We are going to be hosting our annual RGV Coastal Expo event this Thursday and Friday Feb. 13th-14th from 9am-2pm on both days and we'll be setting up for that all week at the Municipal Park which neighbors the EWBC. The two Tropical Parula are continuing here in the park and we know this is a bird of interest for a lot of visiting birders, so we are reaching out to the birding community to let them know that things are going to be a bit busy around here. Regular hours (7am-6pm) will continue through the week but on the days of the event (Thursday & Friday) the grounds will close at 5pm. The event will be centered at the Municipal Park, so the birding center grounds shouldn't be too crowded during the event and will be accessible free of admission, but the park building will be closed. Parking and traffic will be a bit of an issue on the days of the event, so we advise you to park at the Municipal Park if you plant to visit on those days. The Park will also be closed this Saturday, Feb. 15th and Sunday, Feb. 16th. Regular hours of operations will resume on Monday the 17th. Thank you very much and good birding to all!!
