Birdernaturalist: November 2014
http://birdernaturalist.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 24, 2014. Day 4 in SE Peru: From Mid- to Low Elevation. This is the 4. In a series of blogs covering my most recent tour down the Kosñipata Road and the Madre de Dios River in SE Peru from October 25-November 7. I apologize for the delay in posting, as I had to divert my attentions to a party I threw this weekend that became rather a production. With this very distinctive hymenium. That’s because hummingbirds frequently rebuild and reuse on the same nest each year. Is one that I had miss...

Birdernaturalist: A Second Day at Southwest Wings and More Owling
http://birdernaturalist.blogspot.com/2015/05/a-second-day-at-southwest-wings-and.html
Friday, May 8, 2015. A Second Day at Southwest Wings and More Owling. We then worked up to Carr Canyon where we added all the sought-after warblers, such as Virginia’s, Red-faced, and Olive (finally). A highlight was a flock of Red Crossbills, which had at least two different types. This one appears to be Type 6, the largest and largest-billed of all the types, which are all probably good species.

Tuesday, May 26, 2015. This time, the successfully introduced Chukar. This was on my Oregon in Spring tour yesterday, on the way to Fields, Oregon.

Birdernaturalist: Violet-clouded Skipper in the Garden
http://birdernaturalist.blogspot.com/2015/05/violet-clouded-skipper-in-garden.html
Sunday, May 3, 2015. Violet-clouded Skipper in the Garden. I was putting out fresh hummingbird food in the yard yesterday morning when I noticed this small skipper on the purple asters. I realized I hadn’t really figured out what these lovely purple asters are in the yard, so I tried keying them out. The species that Kearney and Peebles (1951) led me to was Aster tephrodes. In the 1960 supplement they mention that it’s been moved to the genus Machaeranthera. With the common name Fall Tansyaster. That I h...

Birdernaturalist: July 2014
http://birdernaturalist.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 18, 2014. White-tailed Ptarmigan in Taos County, New Mexico. These photos are from my short weekend visit to northern New Mexico over the Four of July weekend. Last time I visited my friends Cathy and Gabe here, we drove to Roswell in the southeastern part of the state for Lesser Prairie-Chickens. Finally, more than five years later, we reunited for another chicken, this time the White-tailed Ptarmigan. He flushed this White-tailed Ptarmigan from right in the trail, nearly stepping on it.

Birdernaturalist: March 2015
http://birdernaturalist.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 25, 2015. Costa Rica Blog for March 21-22, 2015. I last left off when we arrived in Monteverde, and now we have just one more day left on the tour. Time has flown. A new one for me. As I scanned it my eyes fell on the shape of this gorgeous Prong-billed Barbet right next to the trunk. Later its partner began excavating a nest on the left side of the stump, not far below the fungus. Our hike took us all the way to the continental divide, unusually visible, but typically windy. Our next de...

Birdernaturalist: Baja Has So Many Birds!
http://birdernaturalist.blogspot.com/2013/02/baja-has-so-many-birds.html
Wednesday, February 6, 2013. Baja Has So Many Birds! Each year is different, and that's why I like leading tours to the same places each year. I never thought I'd see an inflated Magnificent Frigatebird on a wire, like this one at the same place as the above – with a Monk Parakeet sitting next to it a little while later. Richard C. Hoyer.
