The Couch's Kingbird above was not too hospitable to this poor butterfly. In a very short time that butterfly was history and the bird had a smirk on his face. (He does have to eat to survive, I suppose)
While photographing in the area where this bird was, Bill met a man named Gene who lives nearby. Gene has a beautiful home on Lake Casa Blanca. We are staying at Lake Casa Blanca State Park here in Laredo. Gene was having a BBQ last night and invited us to join them. Ribs, chicken, sausages and all the trimmings. Even better than the food was the welcome and conversation with Gene and his friends. Gene's Texas hospitality is certainly the highlight of our time in Laredo.
Today we travel to San Antonio for a 10 day stay. we've been told that San Anton is about 10 degrees cooler than Laredo. That is fine with us-these temps near 90 are a bit warm.
