IKLland Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 From a few days ago. Lifer Rose-breasted Grosbeak(Not self found) County bird Mountain Bluebird! There were 2 females and one male that we saw. There are up to 11 at the location, but it was a quick stop right before sunset and we didn’t really leave the parking lot. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birding Boy Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 I chased my lifer, and Michigan's 15th (?) state record Slaty-backed Gull today! I got there just in time. I saw it for maybe 30 seconds before the entire flock flushed, and the Slaty never returned. Interestingly, this hotspot has two previous SBAG records. https://ebird.org/checklist/S124719081 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birds are cool Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 I went with my church youth group to an adventure park in the 28 and 29th. Last year I saw a Mute Swan and a Snowy Egret. Both were rare. This year we got to the park at 1, and a I did not see either of them. 8 brought my phone in the first day to take a crappy confirmation photo, and then I saw them on the second day when I didn't bring my phone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IKLland Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 (edited) I had two Canada Geese yesterday in a random pond on the side of the road in Palm Beach County, Florida. Apparently these are rare here, but I didn’t know that so no photo. I’ll drive by again hoping they’re still they’re. It’s just so weird having to write a description for one of the most common birds back in my county in California! And bizarre going out specifically to look for them!

Birds are cool Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Grasshopper Sparrow. They are not rare, but they are harder to find than some rare sparrows! I saw it, ran in the house, got my father, and we were able to refind it, and get him the lifer! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
