PaulK Posted September 24 Share Posted September 24 There's a Reed or Palla's Bunting in Squamish BC. Either would be a first Canadian record but the salient features to distinguish them aren't in the photos. If I'd seen it I would have called it a Lincoln's and gone on with my day. https://bcbirdalert.blogspot.com/2023/09/rba-probable-reed-bunting-in-squamish.html 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birds are cool Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 Second state record of a Green-breasted Mango in GA! Third US record outside of TX. Too bad it's on private property, or my father and I would go see it. https://ebird.org/checklist/S150689448?view=photos 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chipperatl Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 <whine commencing>. A Limpkin was spotted by a non-birder yesterday and just confirmed ID this evening, about 20 miles from me in my county. Got the notification late, so will have to try for it in the morning. There are at least 2 within a 40 minutes of me now in Michigan. They are really expanding that range. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
