Austin Christmas Bird Count

As usual, I participated in the Austin Christmas Bird Count this year on Saturday, December 14, on the Hornsby Bend team. All day long we found 102 species at Hornsby Bend. I led a morning group on my monthly survey route, from the birding shelter upriver to the "old crossing" on the Platt property. My morning group found 68 species. Here's my morning eBird list:
