I am in a state of shock: late May, warm weather and fog! In the morning in the lowlands, fog out of season! However, soon we are sneaking out of Belgrade, getting ourselves large cappuccinos at the en route drive-in McDonald’s and continuing to our first site: Beljarica Backwaters. The water level is quite high, no exposed mud bars nor shorebirds. The fog is not thick, but drizzle obstructs distant views.

The rapid growth of ChatGPT – an artificial intelligence chatbot – has been remarkable. ( Here are primers on how it works.) But does ChatGPT have even a rudimentary understanding of a niche topic like birding? I asked it a few questions about birding locations and the (unedited) results are below, along with some brief analysis. My high-level impression is that ChatGPT can synthesize lots of information and produce results that initially seem impressive, but that it still makes obvious mistakes

I recently asked ChatGPT some questions about the best birding locations in the United States and the results were decidedly mixed. I tried some new queries that might be better suited to a large language model of AI because they essentially ask for summaries of broad topics that have been extensively addressed online. Here are the results, which are much better, and a brief analysis of each response.

Torresian Crows are frequently observed around Broome and come into our garden for water. Usually the Torresian Crows just come for a drink, but recently they have been arriving with a slice of dry bread! You don’t have to search too far on the internet to find that Crows worldwide will wash or soak their food. The first visit with a slice of bread was in the afternoon.

Tabasco is probably the wettest state in Mexico. During Mexico’s dry season (which is just now ending), most of the country turns brown, as our plants survive the annual drought by dropping their leaves. But Tabasco only turns from a big swamp into slightly swampy grasslands punctuated with some remaining swampy jungle. As such, it offers some unique birding experiences.

The tiny islands of the southern Caribbean are much more famous for sprawling white sand beaches and azure water as they are for birds; but there are several regional endemics that thoroughly stir the imagination. Some entire family groups are unique to the region, this holds true for the genus Cinclocerthia – tremblers. Comprising two species, these mimids are as full of charisma as many of the more familiar mockingbirds, catbirds, and thrashers.

In the woodpecker high school yearbook, the Eurasian Wryneck is described as “most likely to be turned into a low-end sock puppet” Not very flattering, but then such entries frequently are not. Myself, I was once referred to as “Mr. Negative”, though not in a high school yearbook but rather at one of my employers, a management consultancy.

May is a busy month for birds migrating through Shanghai – and of course, last May was completely missed due to the lockdown. So, I spent a lot of time birding this month, and to keep this post at a manageable length, it mostly only covers the first half of May. It starts with a bird I last saw (and wrote about) in December last year, the Grey-headed Canary Flycatcher.

I swear I'm not crazy, I saw this on Instagram a while back and I can't remember what it was. I looked everywhere on Google but it's only giving back Dewlaps. I'm pretty sure it was a deer or goat that was common knowledge about its existence but never saw in real life. It opened its flaps on its chest to show white fur underneath that most of us assumed was just there and not hidden under two folds of skin.
