I apologize for this post not appearing sooner, as I sent it on Saturday and 
Sunday but it did not make it on the list.
 
I birded Estero llano Grande State Park Saturday morning on a very warm and 
humid morning. Highlight was the Rose-throated Becard that is very busy with 
nest-building. The bird was more easily observable than at other times over the 
winter. Who knows how long she will stay? On the bird walk we also saw a 
White-rumped Sandpiper, a probable Semipalmated (or Western) Sandpiper, 
Magnolia and Yellow warblers, Olive-sided Flycatcher, Common Paraque, Orchard 
Oriole, Stilt Sandpipers, Wilson's Phalaropes, and Eastern Screech Owl.
