How many of you are already used to writing 2013 for the year? I usually need until the end of February to feel certain about the date. I may also need until then to come up with a clever intro to this post, but we can’t wait that long…
I’ll be kicking off my weekend with some early Friday birding with Corey followed by a train back to Rochester for my weekend proper. Corey will follow birding with me by heading upstate to see his folks. It is entirely possible that birds will be seen there. How about you? Where will you be this weekend and will you be birding? Share your plans in the comments below.
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!
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.
I am dangerously low on ducks for the year, so I will be birding Eagle Creek Reservoir on the west side of Indianapolis.
I’m birding at IKEA. 🙁

Also Pink-fppted Goose, Brent Goose, Mallard, Shoveler, Shelduck, Wigeon, Scaup, Teal
My hopes of birding were dashed by paperwork – but luckily I didn’t have to leave my yard. We had a suprise visit from a Barred Owl
