Is it still September? Only a bit more of the ninth month remains, which is probably for the best. September is a month of massive flux in both social and climatic terms. While saying so long to summer hurts, autumn in the Northern Hemisphere deserves our full attention. Anyway, October still boasts some excellent migrations! What will you be doing this weekend and will you be birding?
I’ll be kicking around western New York awaiting something exceptional on the wing. Corey will be in the Albany area birding up his old haunts.
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!
Space Needle against the Seattle sky!
Mike is a leading authority in the field of standardized test preparation, but he's also a traveler who fully expects to see every bird in the world. Besides founding 10,000 Birds in 2003, Mike has also created a number of other entertaining but now extirpated nature blog resources, particularly the Nature Blog Network and I and the Bird.
The Great Ornithologist Felonious Jive and I will be on a shearwater journeys boat, heading out of Half Moon Bay, CA…crossing fingers for Least Storm-Petrel or some bizarre shearwater or Pterodroma!
Striking perceptive of this delightful artwork beneath a crystal blue sky!
Great shot for SWF!Have a nice weekend!
So that is what the Space Needle actually looks like! I used to read a book, when the kids were small, that mentioned it…
Nice composition and colors.
Regards and best wishes
I should be joining one of two equally fab bird walks along Lake Michigan (having a hard time deciding which) … it promises to be a fab day for birding in Chicagoland!
