*****************************************************88
Winds died down overnight so this morning was almost dead calm and very
humid and dewy.  I birded with Tira Overstreet most of the morning
If it is possible that Scarlet Tanager can be junk birds, that filled the
bill this morning.  The things were everywhere and we gave up counting
around 30.  We often found triples together but only saw one female!
Orchard Orioles also were too numerous for an accurate count  Rose-breaded
Grosbeaks were also nice to see

Hockey's and neighboring mulberries had tanagers, Indigo Buntings,
Kiskadees and orioles.  Still kinda weak on the warbler end of things but
there were a few around after yesterday complete dearth of them.
Flycatchers are increasing.  Kentuck warbler sometimes gave us great close
looks and had my FOY Blackburnian warbler.  Red-eyed Vireos are moving thru
as well as still a fair number of swifts.  Dickcissels are beginning to
come in with an nice flock of about 18 near the house.

What's happening in Corpus?
