For those who might be interested, I had a Zone-tailed Hawk (loosely associated with soaring vultures) at Stephen F. Austin State Park in Austin Co. this afternoon (around 1:40pm). I viewed and photographed the hawk from the north-south portion (it eventually bends east towards the Brazos River) of the Cottonwood Trail. Given the way it was soaring, I wouldn't be surprised if it was bouncing back and forth between Austin and Waller cos.
