I birded Rio Grande Village today with a few nice finds.  The best bird was a 
Long-billed Thrasher in the first 30 yards of the Rio Grande Village Nature 
Trail (so before the boardwalk).  There were a number of species that are 
locally uncommon here as well.  The highlights were:
Yellow-bellied Sapsucker - 2
Northern (Yellow-shafted) Flicker - 1
Gray Flycatcher - 1
Blue-headed Vireo - 1 (presumably one of the birds present in Nov)
Cave Swallow - 11 (I suspect that these were migrants)
Black-tailed Gnatcatcher - 14
Brown Thrasher - 2
Long-billed Thrasher - 1
Crissal Thrasher - 2
Black-throated Gray Warbler - 1 (female)

I have places a couple of images of The Long-billed Thrasher and a couple of 
other images on my Flickr page (https://www.flickr.com/photos/70194759@N05/).
