IT has been almost 2 months since i have been into birds and i already have 67 ABA birds and 12 exotic birds. thanks alex for helping me. for my 14 birthday yesterday i got some great binoculars and a sibley's guide for birds of eastern North America. it is great!!!!! on my birthday we had a picnic at matheson hammock, and i brought along alex for the picnic. if felipe was still around he could of came too. i got some lifers at low tide, like snowy egret, reddish egret, both blue herons, gull-billed terns which alex sayed he saw before, and a black-whiskered vireo thanks to a birder who alex knew in some mangroves.
at the picnic were hill mynas, white-fronted parrot, quaker parrots, green heron, moorhen, and 3 mustached parakeets. i saw one come out of a whole in a tree. does that mean they have aa nest their????
anyway it was a lot of fun. I CAN'T WAIT TO GO ON THE NEW TAS WALKS!!!!
