Hello Tweeters,<br class="">
<br class="">
I will be traveling to Austin, TX for several weeks next month (March), assisting family members with care. I am hoping to do some local birding (day outings) while there.<br class="">
<br class="">
If you have favorite spots you recommend I check out, please respond to me personally at daoud_miller AT
