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!
