I believe virtual sparrow fest is free this year. https://www.friendsofbalcones.org/event-4122116. Sign up and see what Dr Birdy and friends can find on the refuge. Try googling sparrowfest 2021 if link above doesn’t work.
Here’s an Empid (and friends) we had on field trip today. Maybe someone else can post the other flycatcher (which I neglected to get pix of).
One of our recent birds at “The Land” in the Davis mountains.
Got bird # 149 at the Dacha recently (found by Mary)
Love it when it’s quiet enough to hear the snap of warbler bills. The “snap” may be the warblers popping open elm seeds, as it sounds particularly loud these days. Update: I now believe the snap I hear is the warbler bill coming together on an insect. Not seeds popping. I knew y’all were waiting…
Just had 2 Bronzed Cowbirds in Hyde park backyard while prepping for class tonight. Knew I should have had my camera handy (Photo from Corpus Christi)
