Every month of 2020 has felt like a year, yet the imminent end of summer still feels too soon. If the end of August blues are getting you down, allow me to prescribe a certain cure: go birding.
I really have no choice but to go birding west of Rochester this weekend, as all sorts of uncommon shorebirds have come and hopefully not yet gone during a busy week. Corey has been crushing Queens birding lately, so don’t expect him to give up now!
How about you? Where will you be this weekend and will you be birding? Share your plans in the comments below.
Mike is a leading authority in the field of standardized test preparation, but he's also a traveler who fully expects to see every bird in the world. Besides founding 10,000 Birds in 2003, Mike has also created a number of other entertaining but now extirpated nature blog resources, particularly the Nature Blog Network and I and the Bird.

Around the nest in Costa Rica, maybe a migrant or two will make an appearance?

Close to home, what else is new in these ,”stay-home stay-safe” times. That said I got out to some pretty good birding and saw a Sora and a Black Phoebe, both tough county birds this weekend.
