I'm seriously thinking about going to the Texas Butterfly Festival in Mission, TX on October 19-22. They also have a dragonfly field trip and will be looking at birds too. I plan on renting a car and spending a few days birding before/after the festival. I'm looking for a roommate to split motel costs and/or car rental costs with me. Check out the festival site at www.texasbuttefly.com Should be fun with lots of great species! Please respond directly to me.
