JR, alive and well in Texas.

We have recently come back from 2 weeks in Texas and New Mexico. We had a great time, Texas was very hot and New Mexico was very chilly. Following a change of Itinerary we also crossed into Arizona for an hour or two. 
Altogether we saw 252 birds, 50 of which were lifers.
One of my pet hates is dates on photos and unfortunately when I was changing camera settings I left the date in. Some I have been able to crop out but not all.
