On Thursday morning Ann and I made a journey to Middle Concho Park. With cooler temperatures we thought we could enjoy the drive through there. We saw a few bird species that we hadn’t seen in several weeks. Notably were some Vermilion Flycatchers, both adult male and some juveniles. Also one Eastern Bluebird, an Eastern Phoebe, finches and herons.
