X-WR-CALDESC:The annual Red-vented Bulbul survey is a collaboration between
  Harris County Precinct 4 and Birds Houston Community Science projects. Th
 is introduced species\, native to India and Southeast Asia\, was first rep
 orted in Houston in 1958. However\, it wasn't until 2022 that Red-vented B
 ulbul was added to the official Texas bird list\, thanks to the efforts of
  Mike Austin\, David Bradford\, and Stephan Lorenz\, who petitioned the Te
 xas Bird Record Committee. Their successful petition included much of the 
 data from this survey.\n\nWe are still trying to monitor and collect data 
 on the Red-vented Bulbul population in Houston. Topics of interest include
  population trends (e.g. growth\, spread\, saturation)\, preferred vegetat
 ion for foraging and nesting\, and response to significant weather events 
 (e.g. extreme freezes\, droughts\, and flooding).\n\nThe survey is tentati
 vely scheduled for Saturday\, June 5\, 2027\, from 7:00 am to 9:00 am in t
 he Heights and surrounding areas. The routes are approximately 2 miles lon
 g and should be walked\, playing calls at likely spots and recording the b
 ulbuls you detect (what they are doing and where they are perched). You ma
 y find a nest\, and we would like additional information such as tree spec
 ies or behavior observed.\n\nIf you are hoping to add this species to your
  Texas list\, please let us know and we will make sure you are on a survey
  route that typically has bulbuls. While most routes have bulbuls annually
 \, we are also surveying sites not known to have bulbuls in an effort to d
 ocument range expansion. Email bulbulsurvey@gmail.com if you have any ques
 tions.\n
