We went birding this morning at Brazos Bend State Park. We arrived just after sunrise and it was absolutely perfect. There were 15-20 other people there at that time and all of us had various binoculars, spotting scopes, cameras, and lenses. We took Daisy (dog) with us on a leash and she was in nose heaven with all the scents. She's so pretty and friendly to everyone who want to pet her. I love seeing people out enjoying the beauty and peace of nature.
Here's the bird list for the morning:
Mourning doves
Great horned owl
Cattle egrets
Rusty blackbirds
Great blue heron
Grackles
Shrike
Purple Gallinule
Tri-colored heron
Cardinals
Moorhens
White Ibis
Green Heron
Reddish egret
Red-winged blackbirds
Little blue heron
Whistling ducks
Ladderbacked Woodpecker
Ravens
Kildeer
Next month it will be cool enough to take a picnic lunch.
I think we should make a project of visiting all the Texas State Parks. Texas has a wonderful system of state parks and it would be fun to see if we could visit all of them!! I think I've had an idea!!
