Hello fellow tweets,
Last Friday was the last day of the Fall reporting period (August 1 -
November 30) and time for me to request your bird sightings from the
period. Ryan Merrill (FieldNotes at wos.org) compiles records for WOS Field
Notes and I keep tabs of unusual bird sightings for North American
Birds. To be clear, an "Unusual Sighting" could be any of the following:
1) rare species (either a state rarity or a bird rare in a particular
locality, e.g. Bobolink in Westport)
2) early, late, or out-of-season dates for migrants and seasonal
residents (e.g. Western Tanager in November at Ridgefield)
3) high-number counts for any species
To keep reporting as simple as possible, you can send reports via e-mail
to either of us, since we routinely share the reports. Please include
the species seen, number recorded, place recorded, and any other
interesting information. We will make sure the reports end up in the
right venue. Please send reports by December 15th.
Thanks and good birding,
Brad Waggoner
Bainbridge Island
