Where Are You Birding This Second Weekend of March 2010?
By Mike • March 11, 2010 • 7 commentsFeel that change in the air? All around the world, we are moving from one season to another. This transformation is attended by an endless array of enthralling natural phenomena. Get outside and see what I mean! Where will you be this weekend and will you be birding? Share your plans in the comments below.
Exciting birds seem to be moving into my airspace so I hope to encounter some of them this weekend. Look for me at Owl Woods! Corey will be stalking signs of spring at a local park in Queens. No doubt, he’ll also be visiting the raven’s nest at least once. Charlie is involved in affairs best left unmentioned.
Whatever your plans this weekend, make time to enjoy SkyWatch Friday. Also be sure to come back Monday to share your best bird of the weekend!

I’m back in Central Florida this weekend but not sure if I’ll have a chance to get out. Hopefully I’ll at least get out for a few hours to a local park.
Jeepers! This photograph just blew me away. For you to be there to take this image is amazing in itself. Lovely, just lovely.

What an incredibly beautiful capture, Mike! And what a beautiful place, marvelous skies! Love the colors and the clouds wrapping themselves around the peaks! Wonderful! Hope you have a terrific weekend!

With my son having a snoddy nose and symptoms of a harmless but annoying cold (I never fully realized the harsh reality behind the first two words of the Beasty Boy’s “No Sleep Til Brooklyn” song title before becoming a father) the perspective on taking him out to long stroller tours through the Leimen/Heidelberg landscape is grim at best.
Indoor birding is more likely, and if I am lucky, I might see Carrion Crow, Eurasian Blackbird and House Sparrow from my apartment.
Coincidence, I am birding in Pululahua!!! 7 day personalized tour for a lucky american lady.
Nice picture, I live here and never tire of looking at this paradise.
This is beautiful! Unless it stops raining, I will probably be birding through my front windows looking at the feeders
Otherwise…Howell Wetlands!
In between gulps of green beer, I might head out to Cameron Forest Timber Reserve to see if I can get some better shots of the Bald Eagle’s nictitating membrane.

I had no idea what that was until I got home and noticed it in the pictures. I’d like to try and get some better shots of it!
