Birding in San Antonio is alive and well, this much I have determined. Hidden away in a majority of San Antonio communities are large green spaces with open areas, water features, and dense cedar trees providing a fantastic sanctuary for birds of all sorts, and the best part is running into birders along the way! One birder even corrected me on my Brown Thrasher ID in favor of a Long-billed Thrasher (I got a better capture yesterday). Most of the photographs in this post are mostly birds from Texas also known as Texas commons, but they are truly my favorite to capture when away from home. Hope y’all enjoy!
I am more determined to develop the skills to identify all of the birds that are around me, both local and migratory. You have an uncanny ability to locate birds around me that I am not aware of. Such beautiful creatures that I am missing. Thank you for your willingness to share, and spread the word to appreciate both birds and pollinators in my own neighborhood.
