Here we go. We finally figured out where this bird disappears to. Red-footed Booby. One of very very few inland records of this seafaring bird. Houston, TX. Much better photos than yesterday's grainy shot of a flying bird from half a mile away.
In just a few days near Houston, Texas I found a red-footed booby, tropical Parula and a western wood-pewee, a truly bizarre and unlikely combination of birds.
very interesting. Thank you for sharing. You are 100% correct on all your points.
We found this amazing katydid in Honduras. Haemodiasma tessellata. Camouflage at its finest.
How about a coral snake up close? Foothill forests of the Caribbean slope in Honduras.
One of the most important and magical shorebird stopover sites in the country is the Bolivar Flats Bird Sanctuary in Texas. It is currently under threat from development and we are in a race to save it. houstonaudubon.org/conservation...
A storm blew over last evening in Houston, TX. This AM, at Rice University, I was surprised to see a Vermilion Flycatcher (rare for an urban environment). While looking at the flycatcher, I saw a dragonfly I had never seen before - Twelve-spotted Skimmer! The 2nd record for our county.
