Harlingen Arroyo Colorado

We spent the past two days in the wonderful South Texas heat looking for birds and being carried away by bugs!! Yesterday we went during the day and then back in the evening and saw a good number of birds. The one that I was really excited to see was the Black-bellied Whistling Duck. We saw a few flocks flying over head and between the markings we saw and the songs we heard it was a no brainer that that was what we were seeing. It was a really cool thing to witness. We saw many birds that we had already seen like White-winged Doves, Great Kiskadees and a Green Heron. We went back today and heard many birds that we just could not find in the trees. It was still a lot of fun and a great way to spend an afternoon, even if it was in the low 100's.
