Birding Shanghai in October 2023

10,000 Birds

I am sure none of you wondered why my Shanghai post for September was already published on the 28th. However, I will explain the reason to you anyway. I just pressed the wrong button when working on the post on September 28 (feel free to insert your own joke about premature something here). Of course, that means that the birds I saw on September 30 are now somewhere in blogpost limbo, not having appeared in the September post but also not legitimately belonging in the October one.

A Predictable Retraction

10,000 Birds

Very early in the year, I wrote a post on this blog about what I thought was a strong contender for BOTY (Bird of the Year) here in Trinidad & Tobago. It was on one of my nemesis birds, one which I have eventually gone on to see and hear several times since. Throughout the year, however, I have been waiting for a bird to steal the spotlight – and some weeks ago, it happened.
