Sheepshead Was Hopping 11/1

We checked out South Padre as soon as we could but it was slow. That night the temps dropped the wind howled and then it rained.  Two days later, a fallout  happened to our delight. The star of the day was young male Magnolia Warbler. It was so bright I questioned if it was a Magnolia.  But he kept popping out in front of us, so there was no doubt.

Who knew he could spread his tail?

The Black-throated Green stayed visible for quite awhile also.

 The Ovenbird surprised us by location in the tree rather on the ground.
