May 8th Park Birding Tour


Our monthly birding tour at the San Angelo State Park went well this morning.  The weather was not as great as we would have liked, the temp only being only in the 60s under cloudy and windy skies, but we ended up seeing about 25 species and had a great time.

The highlight for me was seeing my first Yellow-billed Cuckoo and Eastern Kingbird of the season.

Joining us were John Olson, Pam Guelker, Ken Coley, Jackie Willis, Linda White, Suzanne Johnson and a lady named Cris who is here at Goodfellow AFB for the next seven weeks.  She is from Nebraska and was thrilled to see many birds that she hadn’t seen in her area.

Here are a couple photos of this fun event.  Click on either image for an enlargement.  Happy Birding!!
