Anahuac

 

April Migration Trip Map

 

 

Trinity Bay RV Park.

 

We want to be near Anahuac National Wildlife Refuge and High Island over on the coast.  There aren’t any State Parks there, so we found this nice little out-of-the-way local RV Park.

 

Bald Eagle.

 

Year bird!  On arrival today, our count is 342.

 

Henry guarding my workspace.

 

Our favorite billboard

 

 

It speaks to me.  It’s the earth saying “Do what you will, but remember that in the end I’m still in charge.”

 

American Avocets.

 

 

White Ibis.

 

The gator.

 

 

Pipevine Swallowtail.

 

And today’s star of the show.  Roseate Spoonbill.

 

 

 

Judy asks

 

Judy asks “So what do you want to do today?”

 

That brings to mind the definition of insanity, doing the same thing for the thousandth time and expecting a different result, as I answer “Same thing as yesterday and see if the birds are any different.”

 

Wilson’s Phalarope.

 

Upland Sandpiper.

 

A varmit.  I think it’s a vole.

 

 

Northern Shoveler.

 

And today’s star of the show.  Scarlet Tanager.
