I wanted Penguins. to the ongoing conservation of breeding Lesser Flamingos at Kimberley’s Kamfers Dam to the Albatross Task Force, which works with fishermen to find solutions to seabird bycatch (birds caught in fishermen’s nets). And Sunbirds. And so, I went on the American Birding Association Safari to South Africa.

White-tailed Lapwing by Jochen Roeder Duncan made a surprising choice: While the twitchers might have gone with the lost Emperor Penguin that washed up in June , my heart belongs to another.

So, curious about which birds nest in two places, I quickly found out that it’s Phainopepla, a western bird, a relief because I was concerned that it might have implications for my data collection for the NYS Breeding Bird Atlas. copyright @2020 by David A llen Sibley.

Not to mention, its brilliantly bulbous crimson throat, bloated during breeding season must be a sight! Jean Loscalzo is a penguin buff (Can you blame her?) and would love to watch Rockhopper Penguins. The Magnificent Frigatebird is the bird I would want to see. It seemed like a really fun way to spend the day!

We tend to think of seabirds as mysterious long-winged creatures that spend their lives flying over oceans–phalaropes, noddies, skuas, jaegers, auks, tropicbirds, penguins, albatrosses, storm-petrels, petrels, shearwaters, diving-petrels, frigatebirds, gannets, and boobies.
