Kevin 3,386 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Yesterday I saw two Crested Caracaras attacking a Black Vulture, and calling VERY loudly! In a few minutes they flew over landed in two different trees, then flew on. Not a lifer, but a yard bird! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AlexHenry 1,268 Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 (edited) A Garganey near Sacramento... Chilean Flamingo at Don Edwards in Fremont CA... not sure if this bird is technically countable? Edited January 9, 2020 by AlexHenry 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Birding Boy 1,071 Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Wow! Garganey is quite the lifer for a U.S. birder! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HamRHead 1,447 Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Sandhill Crane from January 6. And a shout out to @Sean C--I thought I might have to pay you a visit to get a Sandhill. That was until this pair lowered their landing gears and dropped flaps a few miles from the house. I still might have to hit up Florida some day for a few other indigenous goodies. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
