04 Oct 2021 Baldwin co. AL I ID'd this as immature Mississippi Kite, but eBird is not giving me that option. I realize they should be gone by now, so would like some confirmation/correction. One was seen in Pensacola, FL (adjacent county to mine) on Oct. 1.

04 Oct 2021 Baldwin co. AL; good-size flock of chickadees, warblers, vireos, etc. came in today after heavy rains. These are some I couldn't ID, and are probably birds I have seen and should know, but I'm still not very good with silhouettes. 1. 2. 3. 4. 4.

I am going to observe bird-banding for the first time. https://www.gulfshores.com/events-calendar/community-events/fort-morgan-bird-banding/ I found the banding protocol on ebird: https://support.ebird.org/en/support/solutions/articles/48000950859-guide-to-ebird-protocols I won't be banding, but I do want to count the birds I see while I am there. Would I do my own lists following the Banding Protocol or do I have one of the banders share their list of banded birds with me and I edit to reflect what I personally saw? @Connor Cochrane@Liam

22 Sept 2021 Baldwin co. AL; suburban yard I recognize the usual Carolina Chickadee call toward the end of the recording; the one I don't recognize is the high-pitched call, heard mostly in the first 24 seconds. BirdNet ID'd as Pacific Slope Flycatcher, but that would be a little weird here. 2021-09-22 1342ed2.wav

16 Aug 2021 Baldwin co. AL; heavy oak/pine woods with adjacent wetland (seep, springs) Eastern Wood-Peewee (due to the long wings & tail) vs. other flycatcher sp. He flew down to a dead limb just a few feet above the ground--I think to investigate me rather than forage as I did not see him sally or flycatch.

Baldwin co. AL Sept 2021 Hi, All. We have had resident Barred Owls for the 20+ years we have lived in our suburban neighborhood. They call frequently (and raucously) at night and commonly in the daytime, also, and it is not unusual for them to fly through or perch for a time in the yard. My question: Other than mating season & contact calls between mates/family members, at what other times would a Barred Owl hoot? I ask, because a couple of days ago, in the late afternoon (still full daylight), a lone Barred was hooting from fairly low in a tree, then dropped to the ground behind some shrubbery, then flew back into the canopy to a different perch. It looked as though he/she were taking prey, but I thought it odd the owl would call attention to itself with hooting if that were the case. There was no reply from any other owl that I could hear. Thoughts?
