That must have been the area where the birds were reported killed. I
did some work on a ranch west of Lake Travis that was hit by a hail
storm with really big hail several years ago. The hail shredded the
trees and killed about half of them, especially the junipers and cedar
elms. It must have done terrible damage to the birds, also. Even a
year later most of the birds were cavity nesters like wrens and
titmouse that might have been somewhat protected.

I didn't see any birds (still don't) since hearing about hundreds of
birds killed in Austin. But I wondered the same thing.
