Winter Warblers in TX and Spring Warblers in AL

Winter warblers are always exciting for birders in the Valley.   Warblers are pursued through state parks, National Wildlife Areas, city parks and gardens but they are not anything compared to our Spring Migration in the north. A Black and White Warbler at the Edinburgh Wetlands was exciting to capture today. But oh my Goodness those wonder days last May. I went through my unpublished photos. I can't resist publishing them before they show up again. I will try to resist taking hundreds of photos a day. My shoulder made a full recovery by January, so my Mantra is . . . everything in moderation, in moderation, in moderation.
