Hi, all!
Next week's VNC field trip will be up Wallace Road, which transects the
Monte Cristo tract of the Lower Rio Grande Valley NWR. The wetland that I
claim "always" has water on my website is now bone dry :-P, but there's a
little water on the west side, but otherwise the habitat consist of thorn
scrub, willows, and ag land; who knows what we may find (usually good for
raptors at least)! The meeting place is the Flying J plaza off US 281 and
Monte
Cristo (park along the western part of the lot so we can find each other
:-)). Cost is $5.00 per person, and all proceeds go to finance a school
field trip to the VNC.
If you're unfamiliar with this area I have a site page with a personal
checklist up on my website:
