Birding

Where Are You Birding This Third Weekend of June 2011?

June 16, 2011 by Mike 8 Comments

I don’t know about you, but for me summer has always stood apart from the other seasons. No doubt, the cessation of school does a lot to distinguish summer, but of course those long, hot days promise so much more than just the absence of academics. This time of year might not mean much for birding depending on where in the world you live, but if you find yourself in a temperate zone north of the Equator, you might love this season as much as I do. This weekend represents your last chance this year to enjoy summer fun before the season officially starts, so make the most of it!

What are you doing this weekend and will you be birding? Share your plans in the comments below!

Corey and I will both be pursuing low-key activities mostly unrelated to the observation of avifauna. Obviously, we always keep at least one eye open for birds… don’t you? 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!
