Northern Waterthrush Meetings in Texas
Parkesia noveboracensis
Bird lovers know that it’s not the Robin who goes “Bob, Bob, Bobbin’ Along”. Pipits do, Spotted Sandpipers do, and so does the Northern Waterthrush. I had occasion to meet this species wintering in San Diego, but those I met this spring in Texas were a treat for me. To see the gallery with images from San Diego, look <HERE>.

Description: Most Northern Waterthrushes spend winter in Mexico, Central America and northern South America, but breed in Canada and some northern tier USA locations. The Convention Center on South Padre Island, Texas is a first rate birding destination. I spent several hours in the morning and several more in the afternoon on this day. |
