If you’ve blogged about your weekend experience, you should include a link in your comment. On Sunday at Kissena Park I saw five species of sparrows. A mixed species flock of sparrows (american tree, field and chipping) was by the bike track parking lot. Hat-tip to Stella. I see why people sometimes call them gray ghosts.

The experience is one of the ornithological highlights in the world. The field site I am assigned to is located in one of the most diverse ecosystems in the world and home to a particularly rich avifauna that numbers well over 500 species. That’s right – birds eating clay. Scarlet Macaws.

For Corey, this was a weekend without a single standout species but with many birds that were pretty darn neat. If you’ve blogged about your weekend experience, you should include a link in your comment.

Phoebe Snetsinger was an American birder who first passed the 8,000 species mark. Before leaving the safety of the car I heeded the park’s advice and checked for animal tracks belonging to any biting, gnawing, mauling, trampling, stabbing or disembowelling species. Having learned from my Namibian experience I walked away briskly.

In honor of the biggest winter birding event of the year, here are a few tips and tricks I’ve picked up over nearly 20 years of CBCing. The Superbowl of Birding in Massachusetts, while not a CBC, put our winter apparel to the test. You want to beat your species total for the year before. So don’t hold back!

There is much to enjoy and appreciate here and I only wish I could have tested out some of these species accounts in pelagic waters before writing about them (sadly, the 10,000 Birds pelagic to Antarctica was canceled this year). SCOPE & SPECIES ORGANIZATION. It covers 434 species across 9 orders and 18 families of birds.
