I photographed the Black-tailed Godwit in my photograph ( above ) on 18 September 2020. Once again the bird disappeared, or at least wasn’t reported, until it was noted at Titchwell RSPB Reserve on the North Norfolk coast on 10 July 2018. In the summer of 2020 it was back at Brancaster Staithe again, with the first record on 23 July.

Each of the dark marks in this photo from August, 2018 was a duck. And yet, less than halfway through our 2020-2021 winter dry season, Lake Cuitzeo had essentially dried up. The good news is that this summer central Mexico is experiencing its best rains since 2018. But mostly, there was just lots and lots of water.

In 2020 with Covid 19 shutting down international birding, some of the local legends concentrated on their local lists more exclusively; some of the birders birding, more or less, full time. The contributing or playing birders together produced photographic records for some 326 species [compared with 315 in 2019 and 318 in 2018].

2020 yielded a single sighting; 2019, two; 2018, four. In 2018, I took a photo of what I thought was a trio of Dowitchers on Lake Cuitzeo. They sometimes fly the length of the world nonstop on their way south, but, fortunately for birders, may stop on their way north. Only one, in Mexico City, was far from the coast.

I first saw this bird in 2018 and seek it out whenever I visit the city. If it were the same bird it would be at least 16 (assuming that evidence of breeding behaviour indicates a maturity of at least one season) years old during 2020. I have become restlessly fascinated by its fortunes.

2018 proved to be one of my best birding years ever. So cheers to 2020, and more birding adventures! Daily birding in my own hometown added to the joy of seeing common species in uncommon circumstances, like a Bald Eagle perched on a Destin sand dune.

So how did the winter of 2020-2021 shape up down here? I began to see Waxwings (which I had only seen once before in central Mexico, in 2018) on February 1st, and have seen them at least once every week since then, in numbers of up to 150. It was, obviously, a most unusual season. There were about 40 in this group.
