Its getting harder and harder to get lifers without traveling... I can only imagine what its like for people who have been birding locally for 20+ years!
@@t.alexmoore yes! Very true! Have to travel, no other option. I saw my first 60-70 birds for the year in first one week here in California and now to reach 90 i had to struggle a lot.
Glad you finde it on the picture. Allready saw it when your first showed the picture. Im from Germany. We've got them here too, but they are also very rare and i haven't seen one so far.
It's always exciting to get a lifer, but two in one day is awesome. I think it's possible you might have even caught 3 lifers. Those cormorants look like White-breasted cormorants. (usually found in Africa, but limpkins are usually found in Florida, so... lol) Anyway, I don't think they are the typical great-crested cormorants that we in North America are used to seeing. You might want to check into it. I enjoy your videos. thank you!
I did see the thing about the cormorants when I searched them. I could ask my local FB group, or report it as a white-breasted on eBird and wait for the emails to arrive telling me its not. Hmm.
Great backdrop on the Limpkin! Congrats.
Thank you!
That’s amazing to have two rare lifers in a day!!

Yep! Makes the drive home so much better!
