Congratulations on the lifer little gull, Derek! Y’all had quite a day! I really like the Kirtland’s warbler and the cinnamon teal is beautiful, too.

Good morning from Hong Kong 🇭🇰 SAR. Yesterday during my morning walk, I saw my first ‘LIFER’, a Yellow-streaked Greenbul. The problem is that this bird is found in eastern and southeastern Africa. I suspect that this bird may have been brought in and released illegally through smuggling, or released from a pet cage by owner, or blew in by seasonal trade wind. Please tell me what you think 🤔….much appreciated 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Oh dang! Is it a bird commonly kept in the pet trade?

@sparrowjax275 Ай бұрын

What do you mean by your first lifer . Lifer is a bird you have never seen before so was this the first bird you have seen? Maybe you mean your first rarity ❤. ;)

There are Kirtland's Warblers in Ontario, but apparently only two known breeding sites. Suitable nesting habitat sites have been created in Simcoe County in recent years.

One of the fun things when birding is, trying to hear where the bird sound is coming before seeing them. Congratulations for finding beautiful birds.

First time seeing this kind of bird. It is NOT listed on the Hong Kong bird book NOR is it in their app. I have a strong feeling the app has not been updating for years, but I witnessed this bird with my own eyes for the first time. It’s a rare occurrence in Hong Kong 🇭🇰 SAR, and had never been sighted by anyone.

Interesting that the Kirtland warbler looked as if it had been ringed.

I got vesper sparrow and kirtland's warbler as lifers on the same day this past May in Michigan :)

We have several species of Egrets nearby where I live in semi-rural area of Hong Kong 🇭🇰 SAR around the shoreline promenade - Chinese Egret, Cattle Egret, Lesser Egret, as well as Greater Egret.

Kirkland's warbler is probably gonna be a once in a lifetime species for me, but I don't think I'll ever forget that song.

That was wonderful! I recently saw a bird that ended up in southeast Alabama after a tropical storm. It was a social flycatcher which is also a lifer for me.

Congrats, guys! What a day! I missed out on a Prairie Warbler in the Chicago area a few weeks ago. Got to the area the day after I saw it was reported on eBird. But did get a lifer Blue Grosbeak in the same area!

Although I enjoy your channel, I have to admit I find that the obsession of some to find as many rare birds in a short amount of time as possible. I’ll forgive you because of your young ages

@sparrowjax275 Ай бұрын

You find the obsession... you did not say what you thought about it.
