4,219, 500, 56, 138 update

 

Now it’s May, and we’re still at 4,219 miles to Fairbanks (but not for much longer).

 

223 birds remaining to get to 500 for the year (at the rate of one new bird a day, that’s a 22-bird cushion).

 

30 continuing education hours to go.

 

And 138 counties in which to report a bird to have all 254 counties in Texas!

 

Here is a rose-breasted grosbeak

 

A contented squirrel.

 

And my favorite billboard.
