The other Great Egrets

10,000 Birds

Great Egrets Ardea alba are confusing on many levels. The first level is the most harmless of them all since it only pertains to birders engaged in international conversations: its common name. Known as the Great Egret in the Americas, it was commonly referred to as the Great White Heron in the Old World. This was unfortunate since it invited confusion with the Carribean white morph of the Great Blue Heron , and nowadays it is thus mostly called the Great White Egret.

Birding Adventure in Mexico, Part I: Colima

10,000 Birds

Back in early March, Andrew Spencer asked me if I would like to go birding in western Mexico with him and another friend in May. The thought of seeing Red Warbler , Tufted Jay , Black-throated Magpie-Jay , and other spectacular Mexican endemics danced within my imagination. Many of these species were very high on my life bird wish list, and the country itself would be a totally new experience: a vibrant and enchanting culture, a varied and tasty cuisine, and stunning and new landscapes.

Happy Fourth – Support Your Local Rehabber!

10,000 Birds

No, these are not highly-trained nestling Blue Jays posing artfully on an American flag. They’re just really cute orphaned Blue Jays who were raised and eventually released by Kim Doner of WING-IT in Tulsa. And Kim – besides being a great rehabber – knows how to Photoshop. It’s summer, so rehabbers all over the country are being deluged with babies as well as the usual injured adults.

The Andean Avocet

10,000 Birds

I am starting a series of posts where I introduce little known birds we can relate. These would be mostly Neotropical birds that have a North American counterpart most are familiar with. Today I introduce the cool Andean Avocet. The Andean Avocet is not a rare bird, but not a lot of folks have seen it. This is partly because it leaves at such high elevations (11,811 – 15,090 feet above sea level) along the high Andes of Peru, Chile, Bolivia, and Argentina.

Where to Stay on Your First Day of Birding in Costa Rica

10,000 Birds

It’s the end of June and up north, the birds are busy with their young, and taking full advantage of the summer’s arthropod bounty. In other words, they are doing the same thing as a lot of people except that we could substitute bugs for watermelon, strawberries, glorious nectarines, grilled stuff, dining outdoors, and other summer fare.

Birding and Fly-fishing in Belize

10,000 Birds

Oh Belize. A beautiful country on Central America’s coast, Belize boasts spectacular diving and snorkeling, immense cave systems, beautiful rivers, dense jungles, and of course, hundreds and hundreds of birds. My husband and I arrived in Belize just after a late afternoon thunderstorm. It was the beginning of the rainy season, and a quiet time in Hopkins, a small Garifuna village in south-central Belize (they are much busier when it is winter in the US).

Best Bird of the Weekend (Last of June 2015)

10,000 Birds

The past week has been invigorating for Americans who support freedom, dignity, and equality. Hopefully you celebrated by enjoying some fine birds! I took a family trip down to rural Pennsylvania, where I can always count on seeing an abundance of Eastern Kingbirds … and I did. Corey’s Best Bird of the Weekend could have been the White-faced Ibis at Captree Island, his first of the year, but White-faced Ibis are boring.

Nestling Williamson’s Sapsuckers and the Douglas Squirrel

10,000 Birds

Last weekend was our Audubon chapter’s annual campout at Lassen Volcanic National Park. I guess if you clicked on any of the links in the previous sentence you know how much I enjoy that park! This weekend I saw something I had never seen before. A pair of Williamson’s Sapsuckers ( Sphyrapicus thyroideus ) nesting in the same snag as a Douglas Squirrel!

Croc and rock birding trip part 1

10,000 Birds

We have recently returned from a “croc and rock” birding trip that took us further into the Kimberley to visit some gorges, see some crocodiles and a great variety of bird-life. There is a lot to see beyond Broome and we chose to spend several days away camping in the bush away from mobile phone coverage, electricity and running water. This may not be everybody’s idea of fun, but to us it is one of the best parts about living where we do.

Yellow-crowned Night-Heron Eating Fiddler Crabs at the Marine Nature Study Area

10,000 Birds

The Marine Nature Study Area in Oceanside is one of the premiere places in New York to get great looks at a variety of saltmarsh species without having to slog through a saltmarsh. The boardwalks through the marsh are well-constructed and offer an intimate view of the specialized creatures that call the challenging intertidal environment home. I was there for awhile on Friday afternoon and, as usual, enjoyed my time there, mostly because of a single amazingly cooperative Yellow-crowned Night-Her

Where Are You Birding This First Weekend of July 2015?

10,000 Birds

The United States sets the fourth day of July apart to focus with white-hot intensity (splashed with red and blue) on the concepts of patriotism and independence. But people from every country revere freedom. Celebrate your own independence, if you’re fortunate enough to enjoy it, by birding wherever you find yourself. I’m hitting picturesque Sodus Bay for holiday fun, while Corey returns to ancestral upstate homeland.
