10,000 Birds

JANUARY 2, 2019

A few nights ago, I sat out in a light snow/rain mix, in the pitch black of Madera Canyon, trying to find a Whiskered Screech Owl. By 7:30, two of the owls starting calling back and forth across the small ravine, and I had my 1300th bird! Matt was working on his own US Big Year, and wanted to join me for the hunt.
