Great! Can't wait to see what else you find down there :) Good places for birds are Sabal Palms, Estero Llano Grande State Park, and Bentsen State Park, should check out some of those places if you haven't already done so!
Thanks! I was really hoping to see an Ani and a Caracara and we saw them on the first day - this area is awesome!
Awesome! I'll be down there in 3 weeks. Enjoy the rest of your stay :)
Thanks Ashley! I will be here for one week. We're heading up to Louisiana on Friday.
Love these guys! How long will you be in the valley for?
