Thru the course of time, travel, and a lot of different occupations, he ended up living in Seattle, and met a girl with a sailboat. My first experience with this bird was near the fishing village of San Evaristo, on the Sea of Cortez, 50 miles north of La Paz, Mexico. They’ve been traveling and bird blogging the world ever since!

It was an all around quality experience. From here, we were headed towards London, and our final flights back to the US and Seattle. This trip, all the way around the world, has been a whirl-wind of amazing stops, fantastic people, and bird species that I never imagined to see in my life time! US Species 101.

For the majority of species – unless they have a second brood or live higher up in the mountains – by the end of June the breeding season is over and very few birds still sing or bother to defend a territory.
