********************************************************************************************* Petra Hockey I hit the streets under cloudy skies and all I can say it is a very good fallout event..One never knows in the spring if it might not be the last. I am not going to post a long list of migrants as I don't really see the point (plus I am to lazy), but suffice it to say it is darn good right now and we saw many birds coming in from the gulf. We had several waves of Eastern Kingbirds, some large, and lots of small passerines, .... buntings and grosbeaks scattered all over over the areas we visited..Saw quite a few warblers in flight but did not scour the woods for them. The winds have died down significantly...to near almost a near calm (<8 mph) so I do not know if the birds will linger much longer, especially if it turns south as expected -- Brush Freeman 361-655-7641 Cell http://texasnaturenotes.blogspot.com/ Finca Alacranes., Utley,Texas 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
