Just saw a male Golden-Cheeked Warbler!

[Blue in a Red State]

In the Ashe juniper tree in front of the house. Second year in a row here. Possibly nesting on our land. There's no mistaking these beauties, and they're such a treat to see, since they nest exclusively here in central Texas.

even if it means rounding up every birdwatcher in the country.

3. Beautiful bird.

I bet you get some nice ones in Texas.
I'd love to make a trip there to go birding.

And any day now, the Painted Buntings will be visiting us, which are another big treat to see.
