Frontera Audubon Thicket, 3/7/10

Not too much going on at Frontera Audubon Thicket in Weslaco. This time of year our winter birds are starting to leave while spring migrants aren't quite here yet. So there's just fewer birds around. This Wilson's Warbler posed before jumping into the water feature for a bath.



Blue-headed Vireo.



Things are boring when I'm photographing Ladder-backed Woodpeckers. But I don't always see them in the thicket.
