Sneakers - But not shoes...

We are wrapping up our time here at Laguna Atascosa NWR, and made our final trip out to the South Padre Island Birding Center on Saturday.

Most of the waterfowl has moved north, but some of the nesting birds have moved in.  Many of these guys skulk around in the reeds, so I called them "Sneakers".

Marsh Wren
This Swamp Sparrow really didn't want to come out, so this was the best picture I could get.

Soras usually don't walk around in the open, but this one gave us some good looks.

  2. The Witchedy-witchedy bird is one of my favorites. Maybe because it's one I can always ID by sound alone ;-)
