We just saw dozens of them Saturday morning flying over Arabia Mountain and on their way to Mexico.

They certainly do have an interesting story and life cycle.Veehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00618654361869856894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4716894977482967985.post-53055549078796313472012-10-06T18:51:23.039-04:002012-10-06T18:51:23.039-04:00Ah, but don't you have a lot of birds in Louis...Ah, but don't you have a lot of birds in Louisiana?
