We have a winner!

 

Fox Sparrow.  That’s the bird I most want next.  It’s a good one because it’s not extremely difficult to find and also because it lives in the north part of Texas in the winter.  We don’t even have to travel out of state to see it; we just have to go to a part of Texas we don’t usually go to in the winter.

 

Not only do we have a winner, we have an alternate.  The next most wanted bird after the Fox Sparrow:  Mountain Quail.  It’s nowhere around here, it lives in the High Sierras in California up through Oregon so it will have to wait, but we’re going to the family reunion on the eastern slope of the Cascades next year.  That will put us within a state of him.  Maybe we can drop down a state and get him then.
