10,000 Birds

NOVEMBER 24, 2015

Though I have been birding for a few years now, I had only birded west of the Mississippi once before my recent trip to Austin, Texas. Given how far west I found myself, I was hoping for at least a handful of new birds. As we walked, I noticed two unique birds on the power lines. Monk Parakeet.

According to a bird guide published in 1911, “Competent authorities have proposed to divide the world, biologically, into two parts – Australia and the rest of the world, and they have considered Australia the more interesting part.” Apparently, King Parrot are an Australian grindcore band formed in Melbourne in 2010.

While I did not go NOLA to bird specifically, I always keep my eyes out. In the hush of a Sunday morning, even “common” birds seemed special. Bird graffiti near Magazine St. The Mississippi River also boasted great birding opportunities. The Mississippi River also boasted great birding opportunities.
