Shirley and other Texbirders, Terry Thibodeaux and I made it down to Sabine Woods yesterday (7-2) and did locate the Tropical Mockingbird. Saw her flying into a spot with dense cover holding food in her bill, which she promptly fed to a fledgling. Too quick a happening for any pics. We did hang out for a while to see if we could get a better view and a pic, but had no such luck, despite seeing the Tropical several more times and hearing what was almost certainly begging vocalizations of young. Love your pic, BTW!
