Birders,
Had the Jabiru yesterday at 6:01pm Central slightly west of FM 1425 on TX 490 
on the south side of the road.? About a dozen other folks were there at the 
same time.? It was in weeds about 3 ft high about even with two telephone poles 
that had been cut off at about 5 feet tall.? We had good views from about 100 
feet, then the bird flew to the fence line to the east where we left it.? From 
the pictures in the National Geo guide, it was an adult, but in flight, had 
some brown in the wings(? subadult).

I will be flying home this afternoon(Fri) a happy camper, but thanks to Mary 
Gustafson(LRG RBA) who gave me a call at work to make sure I knew, and to 
Bernice who gave me a quick cell call while I was checking the previous site on 
FM1425.?? Bird for me was:

TX#400
ABA#806
World#2612
