I fly in to Orlando early Tuesday morning and I will immediately head west to Tampa in search of these two countable exotics. Add Nanday Parakeet and Budgerigar to my ABA Life List. This goal will either be reached or missed before the festival actually starts. Show lots of good birds to lots of birders!

Busch Gardens in Tampa Bay recently welcomed two more baby giraffes, bringing the herd to 17! And they are super cute too! The giraffes joined the rest of the heard on the Serengeti Plain on July 13th. What is neat about giraffes is that it is common for other members of the herd to become involved with the care of newborns.

Sunday we had to head to Tampa to take a flight home, Brian back to the Richmond area for work and me to Washington. Down the beach it continued to make its way past other people and even dogs, though I hope for its sake it eventually took wing – it was a very long line of hotels. Great Egret.

Many visitors who come through Orlando or Tampa see maybe eight or ten species on a winter trip. Magnolia Warbler is an annual winter resident in small numbers in Miami-Dade, FL. . Few birders realize how many warblers actually do winter in southernmost Florida — even long time birders within the state.

In Tampa, we started to return, but once the COVID cases started to rise again in our area, we reversed our decision and kept reps working remotely. A few employees didn’t want to come back to the office, either because they were afraid of infection or preferred their home environment. In Europe, we are now all back in the office.

He is a star player for the Philadelphia Phillies, who are in this year's World Series (which begins tonight in Tampa). Those of you who aren't baseball fans (I feel sorry for you) may not know Chase Utley. Chase and his wife, Jen, are animal lovers, which makes them good people in my book. See here for a story.

Petersburg, which is where I was headed after dipping the Bar-tailed Godwit north of Tampa. They are quite charming parrots, mostly green with a black facial mask and beak, red feathers around the thighs, a bluish tint to the chest, and blue edging the tail. They are relatively easy to find around St. I never got to St. Petersburg.

I loved them where I first found them at a refuge in North Carolina, I loved them at Bosque del Apache in New Mexico, I loved the single goose I spotted in an agricultural field outside of Tampa, standing next to a Sandhill Crane, and another singleton sitting in the midst of a Canada Goose flock in a Maine meadow.
