Graham: Even though the Bexar County checklist http://www.saaudubon.org/BC%20birdlist,%209-8-11%2044.pdf , http://www.saaudubon.org/TEXT,%20BC%20Checklist,%208-5-11.pdf has Bronzed Cowbirds being u-u-u-r, I have had the impression that at least for a while in the fall their numbers go up. That could be due to migration from further north. Later!

I walked past a cowbird gathering today, and casually counted ca. 40 Bronzed Cowbirds, which struck me as odd. I wondered if this time of year sees more of them in Bexar County? I put in an ebird checklist and the number got flagged, so I am curious how unusual this is. There are probably more but I don't have bins with me.
