I agree that that raft of ducks at 21:55 contained lesser scaup. I didn't realize yesterday was Big Day, but I did pick up some nice birds. I saw an American Goshawk, some Horned Larks (not common in my part of Minnesota), Lapland Longspurs, Canada Jays, and Ruffed Grouse. I was hoping for Great Gray Owl, but I didn't see any

Glad you were able to get out and go birding for a bit! Those are some awesome species to have in a days list! Sending you Great Gray Owl luck!

Awesone video! Love seeing Big Days from other parts of the world. For me it was a record Big Day with 121 species and 1 lifer: Bay-capped Wren-Spinetail

Great video! 66 species is impressive! I got 51 species in just the morning here as I had other commitments the rest of the day. Would have been neat to see how many species I could have gotten if I stuck at it all day. Maybe next big day I will be more free. No lifers unfortunately. I went out again today to try to find a LeConte's Sparrow that was seen here yesterday but no luck.

Good morning to you from Singapore 🇸🇬. Getting up so early in the morning, how would you and other bird enthusiasts, see any sign of birds in total darkness ? Do you have a night vision camera / video equipment ?
@brighteyedbirding2 ай бұрын
Good morning Mark! That early in the morning you rely on your ears and listening. Birds start calling well before sunrise so you can start off your day before the sun is even out. No night vision needed.
