Taken on Hill Country Conservancy's Nalle Bunny Run wildlife preserve during the monthly group walk.
Over the years I've found single Merlins on the preserve some winters and springs. And I think they have all been perched on the same dying cottonwood tree near the houses!

Taken at Roy G. Gurerrero Colorado River Metro Park in Travis County.
I found a pair of diving ducks just downstream from the dam. One was obviously a female Bufflehead but I haven't been able to identify the other. Could it be a female Black Scoter? Or a slightly different Bufflehead?

It was exciting to hear and then finally see a singal Inca Dove. I have not observed this species in the area for several years. There was only one individual detected. It was singing and I hope it finds a companion!
