Since I took nearly seventy photos of the Western Kingbird on Thursday, I had this image showing the kingbird to the side of the nest watching over the babies. At first I thought it was to under-exposed, but thanks to good photo editing I was able to brighten it up enough to post here. By the way, the fledges are just about ready to attempt to leave the nest. I wouldn’t be surprised if they were flying by tomorrow.

This morning as Ann and I were driving around after taking care of the bird blind, we came across this Brown Rock Dove. It is not a rare bird, but one that is seldom sighted. This one was near the Prairie Dog village at the San Angelo State Park.

Also I got lucky again, spotting this Northern Bobwhite, in a tree calling to a mate. I heard it before I saw it. Happy Birding and enjoy the photos. Click on the images for an enlargement.
