One of the target bird species for birders when they visit the Broome area is Yellow Chat. They are relatively easy to find year round and sometimes you are lucky when they pose for you. Some years we encounter Crimson Chats around Broome too and even less rare is the Orange Chat. The last record of an Orange Chat in the Broome area was in 2006. We have encountered Orange Chats before in Western Australia, but also in the Northern Territory at the Tennant Creek Poo Ponds.

Last weekend we headed into the mountains of northern Trinidad – the concept of mountains is surely a relative one, although it is the highest conglomeration of hills in the country (and the northernmost outcrop of the Andes) the Northern Range never crosses 1,000m above sea level. While cloud forest exists above 700m, the majority of the mid-elevation forest is humid montane rainforest.

Scarlet Honeyeater male [S. Popple] One of the great things about birding is its continuing ability to surprise. After many years pointing binoculars at birds they can still shock you with unseen – sometimes unrecorded – behaviour, baffle you with an unexpected vocalisation or just turn up in oddly unexpected places. Places, too, can surprise.

Twitching is a British term used to mean “the pursuit of a previously located rare bird.”… a twitcher who fails to see a rare bird has dipped … — Wikipedia. As a birder who lives in central Mexico, I rarely get the opportunity to twitch. There just aren’t that many eyes on the ground down here, and when someone stumbles on a rarity, it may well have been me.

After an unintentionally long hiatus here at Birds and Booze, we’re back – though we’re now a day late with our annual Thanksgiving recommendation. But if you’re like me, perhaps you’re still looking forward to a get-together with friends and family this weekend, or you’re just planning to work your way through a mountain of leftovers in the coming days – both situations will require a good bottle of wine or three.

As we approach a long holiday season, birders’ thoughts turn to more than just meals and merriment. Songs of turtledoves and swans a’swimming are not far off, but we in the U.S. have our minds on turkeys right about now. A mundane weekend makes for mundane birds, so I had to settle for watching House Sparrows chew through my feeders. Plenty of other species stopped by, of course, but they were sorely outnumbered.
