I saw my first Swainson’s Warbler in eastern North Carolina, along the Roanoke River near the town of Weldon.

In other words, eBird is effectively a complete history of my birding experiences. A pelagic out of Hatteras, North Carolina , the Biggest Week in American Birding in Ohio , and trip to Puerto Rico stand out as well. 10,000 Birds also has an eBird profile and since I as a beat writer in 2016, I have been a part of that group.

He is a current member of the North Carolina Bird Records Committee and an eBird coordinator for North Carolina.

Perhaps the best experience of the two days I spend offshore was not a bird, but a mammal. The depths of the North Atlantic are unknown and, in many ways, unknowable. Even in light winds, Black-capped Petrels are effortless and amazing. Pomarine Jaegers, some with long tail spoons, kept us company most of the second day.
