    Hey great vid, you should try doing a video on why the state bird of Utah is the California gully, I think it’s pretty fascinating!

    Forgetting your camera at home seems to work for red-throated loons 😂 but mostly using rare bird alerts and the birding community!

    I had been searching for my nemesis bird (at the time), a worm eating warbler at a small preserve close to where I lived in Gainesville Florida, when I saw a kingbird on a tree just off the road. I'd actually seen this bird a number of times coming back from the birding spot but never paid attention. It looked like a western kingbird, which would have been rare for the county, especially considering the season. So I took a pic, shared it with the local county birding Facebook group, and some expert birders rushed over to the spot and confirmed it as a Western Kingbird. They normally only pass through quickly but that this one had stuck around a bit was cool. A number of local birders got to see and photograph it.

      Oh wow, that's awesome! So much fun when you get to share a rare bird and other people get to also see it!

    Thanks for letting me come along! It was a good time. I don’t understand how everyone else is finding these semipalm sandpipers, lol. I went there again two days later and saw 0 peeps.

    Yeah, almost impossible to not be mesmerized by the Great Blue Heron (or Egrets) no matter how often you get to see them. It's probably the closest we will get to being amongst pterodactyls.

    Utah's state bird is CA Gull??!! I'll look for your video on that topic!! Agree, peeps are hard. Lotsa great shots of shorebirds, and those killdeers kept photobombing!
    Yes, I use eBird rare bird alerts too. I'd love to spot a rare bird then be the one to share it 🙂Thanks for the tips!

    Good morning to you from Hong Kong 🇭🇰. This rare bird app doesn’t work in Hong Kong 🇭🇰 SAR as it is for birds across the US.
