Maybe....Louisiana would be a lot of a bigger find at the location. I just went with Northern based on the range. It didn't vocalize. Anyone else have an opinion? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoroark Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 (edited) We went up the mountain for the first time this year. Oddly, we didn't see a single jay or nutcracker. We also quickly visited Corn Creek to check for a rare Ovenbird, but we didn't see it. Two new lifers (but only one photographed) and five FOYs: Virginia's Warbler (lifer) Bushtit (FOY) Cassin's Finch (FOY) Cordilleran Flycatcher (lifer, photographed, audio proof of ID) Broad-tailed Hummingbird (FOY) I compiled the lists into a trip report: https://ebird.org/tripreport/59140 There are a lot of audio recordings, but they're all still processing as of this post.

dragon49 Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 It was a good day as usual. No lifers, but I had never seen Black-bellied Whistling ducklings before: https://ebird.org/checklist/S111514997 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragon49 Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 I was tired of going the same hotspot all the time, so I hit up a local lake which is also a hotspot. Another great day. I saw my first Florida Mallards: https://ebird.org/checklist/S111629942 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragon49 Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 A little slow, but otherwise a normal day in the neighborhood. The screeching Nanday Parrakeets teased me by perching on a wire, but left after a few seconds and I didn't have time to take any photos: https://ebird.org/checklist/S111807670 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidan B Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 Went out fishing yesterday, and did some birding on the side. So many Canyon Wrens! https://ebird.org/checklist/S111829524 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoroark Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 (edited) 5 lists compiled together: https://ebird.org/tripreport/60608 We went on a day trip up to another oasis called Pahranagat National Wildlife Refuge and then to another refuge in Overton, NV. The former is in Lincoln County, so those birds cannot count for my Clark County list. I think I'll need to break it down a bit here. The turkey in particular was quite aggressive and may have had a nest. 2 lifers (and those were the only FOY): Brown-crested Flycatcher MacGillivray's Flycatcher (not photographed) 1 new for Clark County: Wild Turkey 4 new for Nevada: the three above, plus American Crow 36 new for Lincoln County (I'm not going to clutter this post up, so I'll abbreviate to banding codes): CANG, GAQU, CLGR, MODO, WTSW, SPSA, RBGU, CAGU, BCNH, LBWO, DUFL, BCFL, AMCR, CORA, BEWR, CEDW, YBCH, RWBL, LUWA, MGWA, YEWA, YRWA, WIWA, WETA, REDH, EAGR, VIRA, TUVU, RTHA, OSFL, WEWP, ATFL, WEKI, MAWR, YHBL, COYE Edited June 1, 2022 by Zoroark 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanager 101 Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 (edited) https://ebird.org/checklist/S111899512 Great day with the drive reopening* (*Except I think I broke the 300mm lens on the camera so my photography days may be over ? so maybe horrible day) Please drop a rate on my possibly last photos for a while. maybe @Seanbirds can get an idea of the wildlife drive sightings (It just opened today) This is some stuff we could try to find when you come.

dragon49 Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 (edited) Another great day! This is only the second Loggerhead Shrike I've seen in this hotspot, and it's been a while since I've seen a Great Egret here. https://ebird.org/checklist/S111951272 Edited June 2, 2022 by dragon49 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragon49 Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 The tropical depression kept me indoors until the afternoon. I was wondering whether the avian character of the neighborhood would be different after the storm, and it was. I've only seen a solitary Wood Stork here once, and today I saw four. I've also never seen so many limpkins in one place, and this was my first sighting of a baby, although I couldn't get a picture. Also, the sheer number of Eurasian Collared-Doves was more than I've ever seen in one place. I have seen this many European Starlings at once, but not in a long time. A great day! https://ebird.org/checklist/S112133382 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragon49 Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Another great day! Not a lifer, but I finally saw a White-winged Dove. I hear them every week at this hotspot. It had been my only lifer without photo evidence, but I took care of that. ? https://ebird.org/checklist/S112228603 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragon49 Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 Another great day! I love reporting the near threatened Loggerhead Shrike, and it's nice to know these aren't rare in Florida. I also saw my first Florida Downy Woodpeckers. Didn't get any pictures, but I'll be back at that tree: https://ebird.org/checklist/S112305941 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragon49 Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 Mostly normal day in the neighborhood. I read somewhere online that Northern Cardinals ae the most reported species, but I hardly see any, so it was nice to spot the male. https://ebird.org/checklist/S112522547 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragon49 Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 (edited) Another good day. I was getting tired of seeing the same species in the area every day and was therefore very excited to see the RSH perched on the wire. I ran over to get a photo op. I also saw Rock Pigeons with different colorings and markings (white nose patch) than I'd seen before. https://ebird.org/checklist/S112791465 Edited June 12, 2022 by dragon49 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Spencer Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 (edited) First serious outing in over a month. First of year Northern Bobwhite and Mississippi Kite. My first Purple Martins at this site. Charming pair of Red-bellieds changing nest duties. Red-headed Woodie acting like a flycatcher. https://ebird.org/checklist/S112767884 Edited June 13, 2022 by Charlie Spencer 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
