Caddo Lake SP-January 2, 2019—DD +1—Rain, rain, go away, Deb & Jim want to play.  Didn’t work!  It rained all day and all night.  We had planned to chase the Fork-tailed Flycatcher but the weather dictated otherwise.  Instead we had a nice visit with Bob & Dorothy Metzler in Longview.  It was good to see Bob again.  Bob went with me to Alaska on 3 occasions and to Arizona and Colorado as well.   He also offered several suggestions about where we might kick up a Henslow’s Sparrow and American Woodcock, birds that would be nice to get while here in east Texas.  Following our visit we were their guest for lunch at near by gas station (a nice touch).  Actually this is a local restaurant that had great chili on a wet and cold day.  On our way back we tried to do some birding at the Caddo Lake NWR but the rain prevented us from doing any good.  We were able to add one to our year list—Inca Dove.  Other than that we had no luck.  Hopefully there will be some breaks tomorrow before we leave for Lake of the Pines, our next stop.
