red-eyed cowbird

Say!  I bet that lady bug featured below rode the truck over from Tejas east.  It's a dang immigrant alien maybe.

But moving along.    Today, Crumby headed over to the Foghorn, I mean Longhorn, Dam,  hoping to fluff up his Big Ass Year list some more with a shorebird or two.  A feeble hope. 

Yet despair not ye unworthy and  miserable Sodomites.   Or whomever.  Despite the near absence of the shore friendly disposed of Class Aves,  Crumby did well.   For example, check out this red-eyed cowbird, #219, a poor but adequate documentation photo..  The red-eyed cowbird is  fixing to excape through the chain link fence at the nothwesternmost ball field after being told it was fixing to get baked  into a pie along with three and 20 others.  Goodness!   Also, Crumby finally got pictures for a  Couch's kingbird and wood ducks.  Moving right along on this Big Ass Year.
