I put my list into ebird and as best as I can tell, the total comes to 69 species (18 lifers for me.)
I would like to purchase a print of the Spoonbill photo we talked about as a gift for my parents

I just returned from a one-day birding visit to Lower RGV - Brownsville area and if you or anyone else is interested, I can recommend a local guide who guides for birds and/or butterflies in RGV and Mexico. He was a terrific guide, a lot of fun to spend time with... plus I picked up an overwhelming 18 lifebirds in one day.
Best regards, Peter
