Empid Hornsby
ID bird 1?



ID bird 1?



15 species of shorebird yesterday at Hornsby. But this Chestnut-collared longspur was a treat. Seems to be a young male with a hint of black on belly and a hint of chestnut on collar. Good looks at Baird’s Sandpiper, American Golden Plover and both yellowlegs were also a pleasure!
Have a look at several pix of an Empid I had at my place in Williamson County on the North San Gabriel River (The Dacha). Tell me what you think (and don’t peek at comments before you consider for yourself
Who am I?
So just had a very cool migration experience!!! I’m guessing 200 scissor tail flycatchers at leander HEB swirling around ti roost (pretending ti be martins).
I’d like some comments on 1 of the 4 Ibis I had at Hornsby yesterday.
Here’s the first bird I laid eyes on at Hornsby this morning. And another I finally got some decent pix of.
