Padre Island, more fallout birding

Howdee all,

Another great day of birding on Padre Island..

We arrived on the island and went directly to Sheepshead Road..

Where I immediately saw a beautiful Life bird….Cerulean Warbler..Jeff was able to get some good looks as well before it flew off…No photo of the purdy birdie, others there were able to see and photograph it.

We saw a good number of birds here..warblers, vireos, Tanagers, Orioles..etc

There are lots of Indigo Buntings around..

Scarlet tanager 

At the Convention center we saw

Painted buntings Black and white warbler    Jeff found this Blackburnian warbler…see the orange throat

more throat..I tried but didn't get good photos.. There were lots of cameras on this bird..I think some of the big lenses got some good photos ..We picked up another life bird at the Convention Center..but no photo..

Black-billed Cuckoo 

We were told that across the street from the Convention Center we would see a brown and tan Great Blue Heron..

So off we went..to see this strange Morph..

At the RV park we saw

Red-crowned parrots

 

and another life bird

Tropical Kingbird.
