We are still waiting for the big fallout of birds but in the meantime we took a trip to Bentson-Rio Grande SP. Watching the hawks rise there on their migration was fascinating. Warblers etc. are dribbling into South Padre. The following pictures are some of the birds I managed to capture. The list now stands at 201 for the trip.
