So many birds, so little time...
Wow, where to begin?!?... There have been SO many rapid fire adventures, that I'm faced with the dilemma of continuing to soak these up or skipping some so I can stop and blog about them. hmmm.... having an adventure or simply writing about one.... ;p
I've still not written about my adventure up the Volcano in Guatemala, not to mention the stories from San Diego I never got to.
Reddish Egret digiscoped @ Galveston FeatherFest
Then there are numerous images and stories from Galveston FeatherFest 2 weeks ago, and even more from St. Augustine's unique Birding & FotoFest as well. This story includes exciting rare birds like a Brown Booby....
...interesting resident species like Barred Owls...

However, it's the peak of migration and time is at a premium. Yesterday, I flew like a bird from Florida to California. Today I found myself amidst a valley full of Cassin's Vireos and Chestnut-backed Chickadees (yet another adventure worthy of writing about), and I'm scheduled to guide 2 different walks tomorrow. The first begins at 8 AM the last ends at 8:30 PM! Another absolutely full day.
'tis the nature of the beast, I'm afraid. No one ever said this birding would be easy. Eventually, I will get all of these stories written but I may have to wait for migration to end first!
