and going to Arizona for a week.
Right now I am at 584.
My targets are Virginia's Warbler, Buff Collared Nightjar, Botteri's Sparrow, Lucifer Hummingbird, Black Capped Gnatcatcher, Short Tailed Hawk, Purple Gallinule, Five Striped Sparrow, Blue Footed Booby, Buff Breasted Flycatcher, Berylline Hummingbird, and Aztec Thrush.
You do the math.
And yes, I will be on many, many happy pelagic trips this fall.
600 is so close I can taste it. :D

I may get to in the future, but it's not a possibility any time soon.
Do have fun and make sure to take plenty of pics to share. :hug:

2. 584? Pshaw! I'm at 23 million |
|
Of course, I count every single bird...
I had no idea there were Boobys in Arizona - I'd always assumed they were only seen out in the Pacific islands. Good Luck!

7. So the plural of Booby is Boobies? |
|
Even if the booby is a bird? I wondered about that...
(Man, I hope I get to go see boobies soon...I really like birds.)
