Common Nighthawk

February Senior Bus Trip

It was a great evening and I hope everyone enjoyed the trip. The White-tailed Hawks were a special treat and the Bald Eagle chasing the Snow Geese. Thanks to Bob Honig and the Katy Prairie Conservancy for all they do to protect this special place. Calling curlews, chasing cranes, simmering sunset, and wonderful camaraderie made the evening very special.
