TexBirders,
Yesterday morning, Janice Travis who works for King Ranch had some nice birds
while out and about on the Santa Gertrudis div. in Kleberg Co on the special
Leap Year date. Some of the highlights of her outing would have to be the
Purple Gallinule and Eastern Bluebirds (10!). There was also a Great Horned
Owl nest she visited with 3 young visible. Below is a complete list of birds
she found.
Good birding,
