In 2018, I read an article in Birding magazine by Jeff R. Although the class focused “on birds, students also pick up some botany, geology, hydrology, forestry, fisheries, meteorology, and wildlife management,” students also learned “the names, habits, and importance of local animals and plants.” and from Australia.

The Magpie Geese bred again in the Broome area during 2018. We know there will be a dramatic reduction in the population of our native wildlife when that happens. In the past, when we have had a lot of rainfall in the Broome area during our wet season we have had the arrival of high numbers of Magpie Geese.

But a drake Wood Duck is always appreciated and that it plopped down in front of him at Big John’s Pond at Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge made it even nicer. Corey had a large variety of birds to choose his Best Bird of the Weekend from this week and had a hard time making his selection. How about you?

Corey spent time on both Saturday and Sunday morning looking at shorebirds on the East Pond of Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge. I heard about some extraordinary (for Rochester) shorebirds up at Braddock Bay, but all I earned for my efforts this weekend were a few Semipalmated Sandpipers.

But none of those birds compared to the plucky Ruby-throated Hummingbird that returned to the same exact branch in the same exact tree at Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge to nest once again. Now that is a bird that is worthy of Best Bird of the Weekend! How about you? What was your best bird of the weekend?

It ended with little fan fare; in fact I did not even go chasing birds on the last two days of 2018, as I am just plain tired. With four days to go in 2018, why not try for a few more, right? I just don’t see us doing anything even close to what 2018 turned out to be, but I guess you just never know.

2018 proved to be one of my best birding years ever. Marks National Wildlife Refuge replenished by naturalist spirit, but remained all I could manage. 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. And the third trimester?
