New birds

We’ve continued to bird at least every other day.  And nearly every visit to the South Padre Island Birding Center results in us finding some new bird we had not seen before. Today, we started by checking out this Redhead. The Woman, however, would consider this more of a Rusthead than a Redhead.

We see these guys all the time, but before now, we never really paid that much attention. The Least Tern is all over the shores in Texas. They are striking in their coloration, and even their reflections in the bay are stunning.

This Tricolored Heron was eyeing us incessantly. I guess that we were interesting – at least to him at the time.

Oops. I think that somebody might be getting their paycheck docked a bit. Or maybe a bunch of kids hijacked a golf cart – who knows!

Talk to you soon!
