Greetings All:
I spent an hour along Lake Six this morning/afternoon, noting 28 species of
bird including 1 Snowy Egret, 4 Cattle Egrets, and 1 Yellow-throated Vireo.
I spent an hour below Lake Six this afternoon, noting only 17 species of
bird with 18 Blue-winged Teal, 1 Snowy Egret, and 1 Green Heron the
highlights - along with a very healthy number of Common Grackles setting up
shop at this annual nesting site.
I had no highlights during a short visit to Mae Simmons Park. Wildflowers
are extraordinary this spring and butterflies were in much better than
expected form. Particularly notable: large numbers of Texas Crescents and
a few Mexican Yellows - both species I expect to see later in the year.
