South Texas Day Three

112 species, including 5 life birds.

Weather was extremely hot and muggy, with varying clouds and occasional breeze.

In addition to the female Northern Parula, we observed a hybrid Northern x Tropical Parula.

Other critters included Pocket Gopher, Coyote, White-tailed Deer, Eastern Cottontail, and Spiny-backed Orb Weaver.

Today we celebrated our 450th life bird, a Grasshopper Sparrow seen at Santa Ana NWR.
