Chachalaca, Pauraque, and a Curve-billed Thrasher

Chachalacas are only found within miles of the Rio Grande River in Texas. 



Common Pauraques are found similarly in South Texas.  They're hard to spot on the ground as our Night Hawks are hard to see on horizontal branches.  Both belong to the Goatsucker  Family.

Curve-billed Thrashers range from South Texas west to New Mexico and Arizona.
