Check a fairly regular Botteri's location just east of Sarita. I needed
to visit this to make sure I was in the right place. I did not hear or see
the bird this morning but often do in season. The wind was just screaming
and it was hard to hear anthing. The area is about 2.8 miles east of 77
or near, 27.13'14.62 X 97.44' 37.57"....This bird(s) is behind a fence on
highly protected, no trespassing property but it is as close to a
Corpus/Kingsville location that I know to be accessible for the roadside
birder. There are/were some in eastern Kleberg too but I don't have the
exact locations or the possible permission required to post those
locations. Don't hound this Sarita bird with tapes pls.!!
Sarita itself was quiet but I always enjoy a short stop in. One lawn was
being watered and it attracted a few birds including a nice Philadelphia
Vireo but in general the whole area is very dry...No water in the lakes
north or south of town.
In Weslaco a pair of Green Parakeets came over the motel on Business 83
where I usually stay....I have never had them there before, Also 2 Chimney
Swifts which I assume are migrants.
Went to Estero Llano Grande to renew my park pass that expires tomorrow
only to find out I have to wait until May 1 to renew it....How dumb is
that??? There was nothing of great note except some water flowing thru the
park which made a number of birds happy including the Clay-colored
Robins.....Cough, cough, Thrush
