Also took me about 30 seconds to add this Brown Booby in Aggieland a couple of weeks ago to my Texas list. Only bird on the lake. Same trip as the Limpkin, I was on a roll!!! 60 seconds of birding and added 2.

I’m not at home, but neighbor asking me about “ those birds flying over in V formation “ = Sandhills. Eyes to the skies!! And ears!! My favorite sound!!!

Platte Lane

Walked Platte Lane area of Hornsby this morning. Pretty slow, but we were jawing. Did get Least and Yellow-bellied flycatchers, which was a pleasure to ID confidently!! Didn’t try for pix. Anybody else out birding?
