Joseph Chiera is a Masters student in Animal Behavior and Conservation at Hunter College in NYC and a “somewhat newbie” to birding. I can hardly begin to describe the surreal experience that unfolded before me. It is truly a magical place, an experience like none other.

My own trip was not an intensive birding experience, and August is clearly not the most productive month. Black Stork and three pairs of White-tailed Eagles breed here. Ducks and herons include Garganey and Ferruginous Duck , Squacco and Purple Herons , as well as the Eurasian Spoonbill. eBird bar chart. #2

Plus, I mean, it’s a giant chicken-looking thing that’s actually related to ducks… with that kind of identity crisis going on, what’s not to love? Not to mention, its brilliantly bulbous crimson throat, bloated during breeding season must be a sight! The Magnificent Frigatebird is the bird I would want to see.

Here’s hoping this bird makes it back to its home turf to breed and comes back to spend another winter in New York State! The Nuttall’s Woodpecker Tufted Duck at Cold Spring Harbor, New York The northern southern Woodpecker.Or These Blasts From The Past Where Are You Birding This Third Weekend of March 2010? I disapprove.

This is the story of Fox’s experiences on board the Achiever, the research vessel of the Raincoast Conservation Foundation. The species was seemingly killed off by feather hunters, but then, after years, reappeared at the site of one of the deserted breeding colonies, Torishima Island in Japan.

Felonious Jive really likes a ravishing returning rarity – a Falcated Duck. Considering the bird survived a season in an area saturated with hunters and birds of prey, this facemelting rarity deserves our respect. It was a heart-pounding scene straight out of Jurassic Park, an odd experience for a laid-back pursuit like birding.
