My wife and I arrived on Thursday afternoon with much anticipation right after 
the front had moved through High Island.  At about 6:15 PM we walked into Smith 
Oaks and were immediately greeted by 4 Blue-winged Warblers.  Unfortunately, 
this was the warbler highlight for the weekend.  We only tallied 8 more warbler 
species and we really had to work hard for those.

But the weather was wonderful and I was finally able to photograph a Sedge Wren 
for the first time (#571 photo lifer).  In addition, I finally got a decent 
photo of a Upland Sandpiper and all together added 25 photo birds to my ABA 
area photo Big Year, which now stands at 334.

Some of my favorite photos from the weekend:
