My error-;on Thursday I sailed past the Port Townsend RED-footed booby, I must assume (although I didn't see its feet, so it could have been a blue or brown, but what are the odds?)

I, too, have observed a sudden decrease in the number of birds this time of year. On my 2020 calendar for September 9th I noted, "Birds go missing." Some fellow birders I've mentioned this to have also noted this, but we have no explanation.

Hello All,

Twice per year, I lead a shorebirding trip out to Westport, Bottle Beach, and Tokeland. This is a great opportunity to practice your shorebird ID skills and witness fall migration in full swing. We'll be meeting in Olympia and carpooling from there at 8am.

I still have quite a bit of space left, so shoot me an email if you're interested in coming along!

Dear Tweeters,
>
If anyone out there in Tweeterland has some suggestions for a birding trip to Brazil, I'd love to hear them. I'm considering making my first trip to that country in November, i.e. two months from now. I reckon almost anywhere I go in Brazil would bring with it a lot of birding possibilities. I've no interest in visiting any big cities. The Pantanal is often suggested as the place where many birders make their first stop in Brazil, but I am willing to consider anywhere in Brazil that offers good birding.

A few years ago, I had to abort a visit to Iguazu Falls when I was just a few hour's drive from there. Thus, I would not necessarily consider Iguazu Falls to be a priority; I did manage to get in some birding in that general area, on the Argentine side of the border, before I had to turn around and go home.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
