RBAS blog!

After a bit of set up and a couple of numerous typos, I think we're finally ready to launch the Rio Brazos Audubon blog! The intent of this platform is to have a little more interaction with our members, local birders, or any one else that wants to come and participate. It's an extension of the websiteGoogle Group, and Facebook page. We'll eventually try and tie it in with a group Picasa page so we can put some of our event pictures up.

This format will also allow us to do a couple of other things, like ID lessons or challenges! You know, we're going to have a field trip focusing on everyone's favorite little-brown-jobs next month: SPARROWS! at Washington on the Brazos State Park. I know everyone loves sparrows and I agree, they are pretty great. All of the different shades of brown and tan and black and rust and reddish brown and brownish red and mauve and beige and yellow... I mean who could ask for more colors!?!? Well maybe we can do a couple of practice runs with some pictures and talk about what we're seeing (and NOT seeing!). These little guys don't have to be such a thorn in our sides.

So leave me a message and let me know any hick-ups, requests, suggestions, or ideas you have for this format. I'll start working on some of the ideas that are already circulating... namely, SPARROWS! Thanks!

Good birds,
Rick
