We see lots of birds in Texas, but we don’t see all the birds there are. Birds are regional, so it’s easier to see some of them by *not* being in Texas. Since we’ve been on our trip out of Texas this year, we’ve gotten: Prairie Falcon Evening Grosbeak Juniper Titmouse Mountain Chickadee Black-capped Chickadee Calliope Hummingbird Black-billed Magpie Blue Jay Common Merganser California Gull Mountain Bluebird Steller’s Jay Lewis’s Woodpecker Golden Eagle Bald Eagle Trumpeter Swan Gray Jay Song Sparrow Clark’s Nutcracker Red-naped Sapsucker Sharp-tailed Grouse Red Crossbill Sage Thrasher Some of them are so common, just not common in Texas.
