10,000 Birds

As we march ever closer to the end of 2019, I continue to marvel at the number of birds that pass thru, or reside in this relatively small area. After an extensive year of travel in 2018, I have mainly focused on Pima County and the Tucson area for my birding. The early part of the year found me learning my way around, and meeting some incredible people.

If the timing of Global Big Day means anything, this weekend saw massive birding excitement all over the world. Obviously, your experience may have diverged from the norm. How did it go for you? Rochester did host a really rare and improbable vagrant this weekend, but I missed it. My consolation prize was a large raft of American Coots. Corey got out birding for awhile on Sunday and while he didn’t find the rarity he was hoping to see he still enjoyed a nice autumn morning in the midst of

In our times, it seems foolish to be fearful of birds. It’s an hopeful point of view, perhaps, but I like to think that these days, most people are enlightened enough to consider even the most foreboding flock of vultures circling overhead, or an owl giving a momentarily unnerving call in the dark woods at night, as nothing more than the wonderful living creatures they are, simply going about their natural lives in the wild.*.

We are all guilty of concentrating on the exotic and sensational to the exclusion of “trash birds”, but occasionally something mundane, or close to home has the ability to make us catch our breath. It might be the setting. Perhaps it’s the light. Maybe the character of the individual makes it stand out from the rest of its ordinary family.

On our recent trip to Kununurra we travelled our usual route around the township. It is always hot in Kununurra and you can easily observe many of the bird species around town from your air-conditioned vehicle. We always visit the Poo Ponds on the way into town and also go to Ivanhoe’s Crossing. We then go along Research Station Road, Stock Route Road and complete the circuit back into town along Weaber Plains Road.

We’ve hit that part of October where bats hold more fascination. Good thing that Halloween hits just as migration activity seems to fall off a cliff. Still, don’t believe that the only possible treats in your near future have to be accompanied by the threat to tricks. Late October often sees oddball vagrants popping up where you’d least expect them.

Early Friday afternoon I checked my personal email on my phone while I was at work. And was I ever dismayed to see that Eric Miller, Queens birder-extraordinaire , had managed to find another amazing rarity for my home borough, a Varied Thrush. Why did what would be a new bird for my Queens list dismay me? Well, I had to stay at work. And after work I had to pick up my son from school and by the time I had to pick him up it would be too late to fight traffic all the way to the Alley Pond Environ

A holiday in Cambodia? With 600+ bird species and a two-week trip with possibly a 250 species-list (the best sites are in the northwest and west of the country), my answer is a definitive “yes”. Unlike some competitors whose field guides noticeably vary in quality, Lynx has set its own high standards and sticks to them, making every new edition something to look forward to.
