Michelle Summers Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I've only seen them a couple of times, and they were way up in the tallest trees :-/ Still happy to have gotten to see them :) 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avery Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Don’t have my computer on me, but my best photos are of this same bird, and I don’t have the privilege of uploading videos to eBird, so: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CZwycD0lZWR/?utm_medium=copy_link 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could keep it inclusive by doing it more by groups rather than individual species. Like your best photo of a Swan, or best photo of a diving duck. Or your best...thrasher, thrush, finch. Just a thought. Plus those that have less common birds can share those too. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the idea, but I’m with seanbirds. I’d prefer one species a week, as if you don’t have a good photo of it, you can try for that species all week, not be confused and be like, hey a swan! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was just a suggestion because some people were feeling left out as we are out of the birds that can be found in large parts of the country. From here on if we don't repeat a lot of people won't be able to participate. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulK Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Slipping these in under the wire. Truly unexpected in the middle of the city (I think this was on the RBA); was on an early morning walk with my kid and 30 of them flew into a tree right in front of me nearly at eye level. In a Great Moment in Parenting, I was so taken aback that I turned to my two year old and said "holy f---ing sh-- Clara those are f---ing crossbills". 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
