Black-necked Stilt
Impeccably dressed.
The tow er
At the birding center.
With kids on it!
And parents.
And a view of the boardwalk and flats below.
Back on the island
A view of the bay side. The Laguna Madre. A vast, extra-saline, warm nursery for the bigger creatures that live in the Gulf.
With the bridge to get here in the background.
And the view from the deck.
This is unusual
A roving band of 150 cattle egrets in the field.
They hung out for several hours.
We see them around this time of year. They gather for migration. But we’ve never seen them in the park like this before.
