Of course, as the list grows it gets more and more difficult to add something new to it. Of course, the fact that more Cave Swallows have been reported from Queens than Purple Martins since I moved here means that Purple Martin is actually a very difficult bird to get in Queens.

William Shakespeare was fond of referencing the swallow in verse and, of course, the famous birds of San Juan de Capistrano were heralded as nothing shot of miraculous for their time-keeping abilities, at least until they left.

My daughter was taking an evolutionary biology course at the University of Chicago and was given an assignment involving surveying Monk Parakeet nests in Hyde Park. Of course, the only thing my daughter knew was that she had to go out in the cold and look at birds.

Perhaps it’s the carefree bearing they assume up there, sitting high in the breeze, out in the open without any of the concealing foliage they might otherwise be hiding behind, with millions of lethal electrons coursing under their feet.

Furthermore, if a recently proposed subdivision of Lesser black-backed gulls is accepted (Sangster et al. 1998), then the proper name for this species is L.

Having never visited the Quaker Ridge Hawkwatch in nearby Greenwich, Connecticut, I was pleased to make its acquaintance on an outing with the Queens County Bird Club yesterday.

Of course, this is nonsense – pheasants are probably among the most overrated of all birds. Of course, we all remember Edward Blood (1908-1991), the American skier who competed in the Nordic combined events at the 1932 and the 1936 Winter Olympics ( source ). Connecticut.
