2013 and beyond

It's pretty simple: the most birds seen or heard from one's yard during 2013 will be the "winner". Want in? O.k....then do it despite that.

2013 promises to be a lot less mean but still a carbon-free birding competition, even if slightly less exciting than a MEGA x EPIC hybrid.

LIFER!

I like the newby's.  Yesterday had a small kettle of BWHA at the Chase Place -- my first BWHAs in the spring.  I chased back to the Swamp Lair and had a conglomeration of 50 that formed a couple of kettles and headed off N and NW.   A quick trip to the deck produced a lovely PEFA - #182 for the lair.

The night before I scored Short-eared Owl out in the marsh which is sweet given that I have seen exactly 1 each spring and fall season.

Still well behind the Put Hut but trying to stay in the game-o-la.  #68 and #62 (Chase and Lair, respectively).  Picked up a BRCR this morning at the Chase Place.  The EABL layed her first egg yesterday....

Life proceeds.

  1. BWHA has been thin down here- I still need it for Kent and have only had 2 singletons pass by the house so far. The week of cold north winds is beginning to grate on me. I cannot be far from YEWA, BWWA, GCFL, BGGN, WAVI, BHVI, and tons of other species being present in the yard...

    SORA continues to give me fits- I tape daily and nightly with the wildlife caller toward Amazie and cannot seem to get a response. Did have my 2nd GRYE for the year yesterday.
