For a couple weeks in late April, I was traveling around the, birdy, state of Texas. I didn't have a chance to hit the coast, so it may not have been as birdy as it could have been, however there were many birds with some nice highlights. I spent most of my time conducting breeding bird surveys in Lyndon Johnson NHP and Lake Meredith NRA but was able to make a quick stop at Balcones Canyonlands for Golden-cheeked Warblers and Black-capped Vireos.

| One of many, this is the unmistakable Scissor-tailed Flycatcher. |

| An almost albino Northern Mockingbird. Not 1 but 2 were present at Lyndon Johnson NHP |
 |
| This picture was taken a few years ago due to the rainy conditions I encountered at Balcones. I did have many Golden-cheeks though! |

| Birding doesn't have to be all serious . . . here is what I was introduced to as a "real" Texas bar. |
