More beautiful birds

It has been cooler here (23C) so we are doing more walking and biking than swimming this winter.  Recently we hiked  a dirt road heading up and over a hill to a small beach about 1 1/2 miles from our RV park.  Along the way we spotted some birds we hadn't seen before.



 Gold Cheeked Woodpecker (Female)

Masked Tityra
The parakeets you could hear in the trees but you had to stand quietly and watch through the binoculars for a few minutes to detect them moving among the leaves of the tree.
