I don’t know whether head brewer Chris Schell – a Delmar native with a decade of craft brewing experience – is a birder or not, but each beer is adorned with trippy, vaguely sci-fi depictions of birds by Boston artist Ian Tartasky , some of which seem to be identifiable to species.

In other words, eBird is effectively a complete history of my birding experiences. In just a few clicks I can determine that my 442nd Mallard sighting was a group of 50 at Steigerwald Lake NWR on October 25, 2019, that the checklist was started at 9:46 a.m Moreover, it contributes to science (and economics ) and the price is right.

Yet they also bring up questions, which I’m going to talk about right now before diving into the specifics of the guides themselves. Steve Howell has spent decades of experience in the field studying the birds of Belize, Costa Rica, and especially Mexico. Two issues came to mind immediately when I examined my reviewer copies.

We see a closer shot of the river itself, hawks flying across the span, and then we see that brown line again, close up, a wall of brown panels filling the right side of the screen, continuing into the distance, no end in sight, while a white pick-up truck drives parallel to it at the far left of the screen.

I write this on the final day of the year, the last bit of 2019. If birders still fancied adding that Purple Finch, Ivory Gull, or Three-wattled Bellbird in 2019, December 31st would have been their final chance. Luck always plays a role for seeing these monster goshawks but so does looking for them in the right places.

He has lots of experience with its close relative in Morelia, the endemic Spotted Wren. That number was a bit better than my first-day total from 2019, though a bit worse than 2020’s total. So, as they say here in Mexico, we got out of bed on the right side! Was it practicing?
