Davis Mountains Lubbers
Love these colorful, chunky grasshoppers in Davis Mountains this time of year. They’re called Plains Lubber Grasshoppers. Also a couple of young birds for someone to ID.

Was in Davis Mountains week of the 4th. Here’s a couple of nice ones.
Another BBS out of Marfa is in the books! Here’s a few participants. What say ye on the flycatcher? (same bird in 2 pix and a video)
I just can’t stop !!
I was delighted to add this heard only bird to the yard list at our Davis Mountains Resort (DMR) place. Also heard them most of the morning at LE Woods picnic area and saw one briefly. (This iPhone video is from a later sighting in the DMR). Current name is Montezuma Quail, but I learned…
Birds in snow….. do I need to say more?
So I watched this Lark Sparrow at L.E. Wood Picnic area in Davis Mnts for about 20 minutes. I couldn’t tell what he/she was up to until I checked the pix on PC. Gathering hairs!!!! For nesting I presume. What eyesight these critters have!!!
