Mark]: This luscious book, Penguins: The Ultimate Guide , by De Roy, Jones, and Cornthwaite, is the second edition of a book first published in 2015. Anything else we could say about this great book would only be more in the way of superlatives. (And the price has not increased since 2015; it’s a bargain.).

The last ten birds have taken a very long time: when I last asked what I would add to my Queens list it was September 21, 2015 ! So what were the actual ten birds that I added between September of 2015 and two Fridays ago? Not only did I not predict it in 2015 but I never predicted one. That’s long time! 0 out of 1!). .

The checklist of the Louisiana Ornithological Society was at 485 as of August 2020.) Louisiana is a magical place to bird. Marybeth and Lynn chase birds familiar and unfamiliar to me, a Northeastern birder, and I’m sure it will be the same for any reader in North America.

Signaling theory comes up frequently in bird literature (one example I can think of off-hand is Nick Davies’ Cuckoo: Cheating by Nature, Bloomsbury, 2015), but if you’re not familiar with its basic ideas you must read the Introduction.

The Steller’s Sea-Eagle I saw in Maine in January (and which is now apparently back in Canada) did not make it into this book due to a December 2020 cutoff date (at that point the Sea-Eagle had been seen in Denali but its significance as a North American traveler was not yet known). It may become a poster child (poster bird?)

The first words describing this species in Wikipedia are “poorly-documented” Before 2015, when I first saw it in Paso Ancho, it had only been reported twice on eBird outside of its Sierra Madre Occidental breeding range: once from Taxco, Mexico, and another report from Nicaragua.

I have not left the state of Michoacán since January of 2020. which is its common name in Spanish) back in 2015, and I had heard it two times since. Corey, I can do you one better.

I visited Tengchong in late 2020 and wrote about it – but I also went there earlier, in 2017, and this post shows some photos I took during that trip, along with the usual comments that seem to be much more about ridiculing my fellow humans (especially ornithologists and the like) than providing useful information on birds.
