Yesterday I was out in my backyard across the beltway from Tom Bass Park when I heard some crows flying over. They were "escorting" a large black bird, much larger than themselves with a rounded, spade shaped tail. I'm sure this bird was a raven but was unable to determine the species. I've not had time to check, but the picnic areas at Tom Bass Park might be worth checking for it. It was headed that direction. -- David Sarkozi Houston, TX (713) 412-4409 twitter ID dsarkozi 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
