Honestly, if there's one bird we'll never argue over its name, it's the Roseate Spoonbill. I mean, look at that! Absolutely epic. Spotted on South Padre Island deep in Texas. #Spoonbill #RGVbirds #BirdsSeenin2025

😂😂😂I really wasn't prepared for how long the Scissortail Flycatcher's tail actually is! Spotted along the Rio Grande near Brownsville, TX. ✂️✂️✂️ #Flycatcher #RGVbirds

The Crested Caracara, also called the Mexican eagle, is another bird whose range barely crosses the border (see map below). It looks like a hawk, but is technically a falcon. Another lifer on my U.S. list! 🥰🥰🥰 #Caracare #Lifer #RGVbirds
