I have been getting out and watching around for the fall arrivals. Not too successful but did see the first Spotted Towhee of the fall out at San Angelo State Park. We drove to Middle Concho Park and spotted two Pied-billed Grebes and a large flock of Black-crowned Night Herons. I did not get any usuable photos of these because of the distance involved, so I will show you the two below from previous posts. But it is a sign that migration is getting under way, albeit very late.

Here are a few photographs I managed to get the past few days.

We can’t forget our four-footed friends.

Enjoy the pics until I get back with some more. Click on any of them to see enlargements.
