What's next, can't wait!
(too bad I couldn't attend his Haiku reading!)
But boy am I glad to accompany Lance Benner and co. today to Bob's Gap. Much more productive than Smith Oaks field trip at High Island. Probably because today we weren't mainly looking for warblers and vireos lol, but at Smith Oaks I was super frustrated because of my hearing defect.
After being clueless for a while when others were exchanging info, which of course I can't hear, had to finally ask 'w-what?' When I obtained the name of the bird, it's already gone...that way missed Yellow-billed Cuckoo, Scarlet Tanager, and countless others. So, disgusted, quit on the 2nd trip.
I should've 'demanded' special treatment lol from the onset, asking them to tell ME first lol, but still.
Anyhow. Gray Vireo! Scott's Oriole! Black-throated Sparrow! White-throated Sparrow which I couldn't spot during last year(according to Tom Wurster it's still there at Arboretum? I don't believe it..haha)! Vermilion Flycatcher! I even think I took a faraway pic of Ladder-backed Woodpecker..lol.
To tap it off, again with the help of veteran birders, later spotted Harris's Sparrow!
In sum; Yoo-hoo! :)
