Birding today in Big Bend NP was not particularly good.  Maybe the 97 degree temps had the birds laying low. 

 We added 3 species to the 2025 list including this Wilson's Warbler...


... And this unexpected female Mountain Bluebird.

And, finally a Mexican Jay.


I suspect if Trumpy finds out about this bird he'll want to rename it to 'American Jay.'

The Audubon's sub-species of the Yellow-rumped Warbler tends to be much more colorful than its eastern counterparts referred to as the Myrtle sub-species.


This Roadrunner certainly looks out of place on grass.


We saw several mammals today including coyote, jackrabbits, desert cottontails, mule deer and the diminutive Carmen Mountain Whitetail deer.  We also saw about a dozen javelina including this one that vogued for pictures.
