Eric and I made a little side trip to the Rio Grande Valley to get the most common bird neither of us had on our life lists for Texas.
Anyone want to ID Mr Scruffy here?

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.
Forgot the sparrows!!! Here’s a few more to ID, including 1 pretty good bird for eastern Will Co.
Other stuff seen on south Texas trip.
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.
More to ID.
Spent some more time out in the Davis Mountains last week. The Brewer’s Sparrows sing in groups all in the same bush. See if you can ID others in the bush.
