Libby Even will lead a field trip to Ganado, Texas targeting Swallow-tailed Kites and Mississippi Kites.
Meet at the Walmart Supercenter in Callallen, 3829 US-77, Corpus Christi, TX 78410, at 7 AM to carpool to Devers Creek Park (a 1 hour and 45 minute drive) and spend an hour or two watching the kite ballet. This is a recent (7-8 years) nesting area for the kites and a staging area where they gather up in preparation for their migration South.
After lunch at a local eatery we will head home by way of Lake Texana to see what we can find on their trails. We will look for Carolina Chickadee, Red-bellied and Pileated Woodpeckers and other more Eastern residents not as common in our hometown.
We plan to arrive back at Walmart near 3PM.
Please RSVP by text to Libby's cell #361-563-4356 to let her know if you are coming and/or to reserve one of three spots in her car. Let's Go Birding!
