I have vowed not to spend another rainy season over here. 6 months of rain is a little much for me. Anyway it is starting to let up. So got out and shot a few birds.  Grey-headed Woodpecker  Blue-rock Thrush  Pied Harrier  Common Krestrel  Red-billed blue Magpie  Greater Yellownape  Siberian Stonechat  Live between San Antonio, Texas and Thailand. I spend about 9 months a year in Thailand and 3 in Texas.

I hope.. My home is in Texas originally. And I know about the drought's.. That is no fun either, but it beats gloomy weather everyday IMO. Only thing in California they have the fires that rage for weeks on end? Not sure about that. Live between San Antonio, Texas and Thailand. I spend about 9 months a year in Thailand and 3 in Texas.

The weather will clear in November and be clear for 6 months. So a trade off. Very bad for 6 months then very good for 6 months. Live between San Antonio, Texas and Thailand.
