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.

Last night's catch

Let's get right to the important stuff first. I had a possible Le Conte's Sparrow around midnight which is here:

Still working out the ID, but the very long duration was obvious but may not be quite the norm (it apparently averages 0.2 seconds, mine was around .15-.18 depending on how you interpret the end of the note. More soon...

Here is a sampling of the mega flight which occurred:

Zeep, possibly BLBW

COYE (lots last night):

?:

CSWA I presume:
 No clue! (there aren't supposed to be any upslurred buzzy warblers, and it's too high for thrushes)


LISP/SWSP:

mystery zeep

Sparrow sp.

NOPA?
 WTSP (one of many)

?

zeep, possibly BLBW


Fun stuff, more soon once I decide if I am getting any ticks out of talll this!

    I think the complete lack of responses to this blog-monopolizing post speaks volumes. While badass, sonograms just don't get my juices flowing the way they do for you CAPU.
