AlexHenry Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 (edited) Just hit 400 birds for California (Cook’s Petrel) and 200 birds for Sonoma County (Hawaiian Petrel). My second Hawaiian Petrel of the year - self-found this time! (And I’ve only done two pelagics this year!)

Connor Cochrane Posted August 17, 2021 Author Share Posted August 17, 2021 Not the biggest milestone, but I did just hit 325 species in Marin county. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m at 199 in Marin so very close to a milestone. 325 is a pretty sweet County list. Think you’ll hit 300 for the year? Fall migration should bring a nice burst of shorebirds and vagrant songbirds 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did have a few big misses during the winter so as long as migration isn't horrible like it was this spring I think it'll be possible.

If you ever are in a situation where you really need a ride out to the outer point, especially if it’s on a weekend, I might be able to help out. I’d like to get to know Point Reyes better this fall 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d like to get to know Point Reyes better this fall I'll probably take you up on that offer later this year. There are many spots in Point Reyes that can be productive that aren't well known at all and are rarely covered that I can show you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We see them here every winter (that's what was with the raven in the photo I posted earlier, if you didn't know). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only one county record for Golden, actually, from November 2017, so chances are pretty low, but as you said it's possible if I look in the right places. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I remember hearing somewhere that their numbers are going down particularly fast. There seems to be a lot showing up around the state at the moment though, so hopefully that's indicative of a good breeding season for them. We found another one the day after too in a completely different location, which was a bit of a surprise considering we'd never seen one before! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On another note, I just realized that the Common Grackles conservation status is also Near Threatened now, and I'm in shock. Their numbers have declined by more than 60 percent in the last forty years. I never knew! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
