Dear all, We drug ourselves in after finishing the San Antonio Audubon Society Christmas Count. We had a really good day, with a preliminary total of 156, which was five species better than last year. I still am waiting for a couple of lists, so it could go higher. Highlights included TWO Tropical Parulas, Common Paraque, Long-billed Curlew, American Woodcock and Burrowing Owl. We had 14 species of shorebirds, including Solitary Sandpiper and Stilt Sandpiper. I will post a more complete report after I get all of the count data back.
