@yoavperlman@davlow Yoav, at least one of the birds at the front appears to have black breast markings like a Calandra or Bimac. Is that an artifact of the image?
Beautiful male Golden-winged Warbler at the “magic hedge” on Chicago’s lakefront this morning. Perhaps one of the birds ABC has been providing habitat for in Wisconsin to our north….
@CleyBirds Steve, I dropped in to Cromer on a lightening trip to Norfolk in July and there were thousands of gulls feeding on what appeared to be Whitebait - huge shoals close to the beach. Lots of Med Gulls and at least one young Caspian among them.
@Georgia_Platt_@FI_Obs Back in the 80s we saw a Great Snipe on Fair Isle. We expected it to be tough after getting a report but found it preening its tail on the edge of a peat cut. A Yellow-breasted Bunting flew in while we were watching it, then a Roller appeared nearby - all in about 10 mins.
Shout out to Oregon Democrat @RonWyden for introducing this legislation. This should really get bipartisan support. Let’s see who is willing to stand up for birds. @ABCbirds
We're feeling hopeful about U.S. grassland birds and their habitats, thx to legislation introduced by @RonWyden. Although half of our grassland birds have been lost since 1970, this legislation will help turn declines around by empowering land stewards. + https://t.co/R9v6sfXRnp
@lukenashnature@RareBirdAlertUK@georgedunbar_ @danburt31 Nice! I saw the Radipole Lake bird back in the late 70s or early 80s. Jammed in on Ivory Gull at Chesil Beach same day. Hitched from Liverpool, nearly froze, had police dogs set on us after sleeping in a bus. Now I see PBGR on my way to work sometimes since I live in the U.S.! 😎
Distant BOC shot of the White-winged Tern currently at the end of Big Stone Beach Road, Delaware. Foraging over the marsh on the south side of the road right before the beach parking area. Great bird!
@CleyBirds Steve, I remember seeing one back in the late 70s or early 80s from the west bank over near the windmill. I think Enid was there. You may have been too. We all waited and it flew over at dusk as expected!
