Corpus Christi CBC 2019-12-14
I was again fortunate to be able to participate in the Corpus Christi Christmas Bird Count on the Angelita Ranch with Joan and Scott Holt and Mel Cooksey. We split up into two groups to cover the ranch, and Mel and I drove the truck trails in his subaru. We frequently stopped to bird, playing an Eastern Screech-Owl recording to see what it attracted. Highlights included southern and western species like Verdin, Green Jay, Long-billed Thrasher, Great Kiskadee, and Pyrrhuloxia. At the end of the day driving off the ranch Joan and Scott and I found a single Green Kingfisher at a creek crossing.
Attached are a few observations.

One last treat on our way out of the ranch was this female Green Kingfisher we spotted from a bridge across a small creek.

I tried hard to make this distant flying hawk into a Ferruginous Hawk but the white V on the back and dark leading edge on the underside of the wings make me think it's a Red-tailed Hawk.
