Pough “with illustrations in color of every species” by Don Eckelberry, Doubleday, 1946. If you remember that the first edition of Sibley was published with “National Audubon Society” on the cover, raise your hand. The press material says it covers over 800 species, so you know I had to do a count.

There are numerous bird species that we only observe when we are many miles from home and some bird species we have rarely observed. Whilst observing the Southern Emu-wrens a White-fronted Chat flew into view and landed on some raised vegetation! All the best to you and your family for good health and good birding in 2020!

I’ve never known quite what to do with the two Cardinal sightings I have had near our church in Morelia, since that species is not supposed to be seen there, or to be migratory, but both sightings occurred in winter.
