Birds in the Park – February 2017

From the Houston Audubon Society's Jason Bonilla:

We had our February bird survey in Woodland Park yesterday with 28 species recorded. The highlight for me was the Great Horned Owl. Thanks to Mary for spotting the owl so that we could get the scope on him/her to see the owl staring back at us. The full list is pasted below and the spreadsheet for all years is attached. Our next bird walk will be on March 11th.
