1/26 Texas Birding Day 5 Bentsen State Park

Paul and Fran Bauer and Lois and I traveled to the Lower Rio Grande Valley the end of January
to see many birds that I have never seen. We returned along the gulf though lower Louisiana.

Day 5 2010-01-26: Bentsen State Park • Lower Rio Grande Valley Texas

A few birds shown on map to establish shooting location, click here for map.

Bentsen State Park was easier to navigate as it had a tram circling the area ever thirty minutes. But we had to make sure to catch the last one or hike out.
