Is this not a gigantic thing? I'm staring at this Canon 400mm handheld and pacing back and forth in my Dallas cage. Too bad we just got back from Rockport and are land-bound for the near future. Is this race for documentation and epic photography not on? Photos please! Phoebes and I - and I assume many others - are holding our breath : - ) Nick From: "" <dmarc-noreply@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> (Redacted sender "Stenmead@xxxxxxx" for DMARC) Date: Thu, 5 Jun 2014 13:02:54 -0400 (EDT) Subject: [texbirds] Reported Flamingo near Oyster creek and 523 in A semi-birder friend who has seen and can describe the difference between a Roseate Spoonbill and a Flamingo telephoned about an hours ago and reported a Flamingo flying near Oyster Creek near Hwy 523 in Brazoria County, just northeast of Freeport. He has seen the pair of flamingos in the Rockport area. He describes todays sighting :" there is just one here, much bigger than the little pink ones, it has with long, long legs sticking out behind it and is bright pink." So if anyone is birding near this area, you might be extra watchful for flying pink!
