Rio San Juan, Tequisquiapan

Evening walk along the Rio San Juan on Tuesday in Tequisquiapan gave a few nice birds.  Not loads and loads of Warblers yet, but I did get onto a flock which contained Nashville, Black-and-white, Black-throated Grey, Townsend's, Wilson's and Yellow-rumped.

Black-throated Grey Warbler
 A nice surprise was a Belted Kingfisher and a pair of Green Kingfishers.  Suggests that the river has a few fish in it.
