Steve Stevan Hawkins San Antonio TX ----- Original Message ----- From: Bear Springs Blossom NCG <mailto:bearspringsblossom@xxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, February 23, 2013 11:40 AM Dear members of Bear Springs Blossom and friends of Nature, we are happy to report, that this morning the first two male Golden Cheeked Warblers were singing in the Bear Springs Blossom canyon. http://www.keepbanderabeautiful.org/bearspringsblossom/goldencheekedwarbler. html Our Vice president reported a few days ago, that on his preserve in the Texas Hill Country the first Golden Cheeked Warblers have arrived too. This is the earliest (over 3 weeks earlier than ever before) the golden cheeked bird has arrived from his winter vacation in Central America. We hope he can find enough to eat, our oaks and cherries have still no leaves, only the Redbuds are blooming. We wish you all a great weekend Peter & Marianne Bonenberger Master Conservationists Bear Springs Blossom Nature Conservation International charitable nonprofit organization P.O.B 63295, Pipe Creek, TX, 78063 www.nature-education.org <http://www.nature-education.org/> www.naturkunde-wissen.de <http://www.naturkunde-wissen.de/> www.keep-Earth-beautiful.org <http://www.keep-earth-beautiful.org/> www.keepbanderabeautiful.org <http://www.keepbanderabeautiful.org/> www.bear-springs-blossom.org <http://www.bear-springs-blossom.org/> Edit your Freelists account settings for TEXBIRDS at //www.freelists.org/list/texbirds Reposting of traffic from TEXBIRDS is prohibited without seeking permission from the List Owner
