But our rainy season, while bad for wildlife photography, has encouraged some beautiful non-feathered life forms. Sometimes it is the experience that makes them memorable. You could say that I don’t bird just for the birds. My recent drizzle-days produced some particularly bad bird photos. I won’t torture you with those.

In other words, eBird is effectively a complete history of my birding experiences. Birding trips to Florida , New Mexico , and Texas are obvious too. And I will continue my quest to see all of my Top 25 National Wildlife Refuges for Birding too. A checklist from Rock Creek Park in Washington D.C. was good for 11 lifers.

Because of this, areas around the city that were once sleepy are now “urban,” with humans and wildlife struggling to keep up. Again, they are fairly common in the Southwest and Mexico, but for me they felt brand new! Because of this, the city is in flux, with city streets adding new buildings and restaurants all the time.

Being a westerner — raised in California, and now living in western Mexico — I was perhaps most excited about the migratory birds that breed in eastern North America. And the Baltimore Oriole is an iconic eastern bird, which winters along Mexico’s east coast, but never in the west. Then, around 4:00 p.m.,

Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) attempts to calculate the economic contribution of National Wildlife Refuge visitation to local communities.
