Hi All,
The Horned Grebe that Jennifer Miller found yesterday is still at the playa
behind Academy at about 114th Street and Quaker. You will need a scope to view
it. There are two Eared Grebes and at least one Pied-bill Grebe present.
Last week I heard a Ferruginous Pygmy-owl just outside of Raymondville (near
the lower Rio Grande Valley). That made my 425th Texas bird for the year,
which was my Texas Big Year Goal. The Horned Grebe was number 433. I am not
stopping, but I feel some of the pressure is now off.
Wish me luck!
