My home in San Antonio Texas to Laredo. Crossed the border into Mexico and drove the autopista to Mexico City. Birded in the Siera's for a few weeks. Then headed to Tabasco, Campeche, love that area and explored some out of the way places.
In the next few day I will head to the Yucatan and explore the rio's around Progresso and Rio Lagartos. Just goofing off and killing time. I love this area and the birding is out of this world. Much better than Asia.

All shot with the 7D II and DO II with and without the 1.4 t.c.
This doesn't even scratch the surface of the birds I have seen here. Excellent road trip so far.
