Birders go birding, and die a little inside when non-birders call it “birdwatching.” I only put “birdwatching” in the title because my editor said people wouldn’t understand it otherwise.

They named her Stella. Admittedly, it’s a pretty cool looking bird.

They named him Timberdoodle. Scientists think American woodcocks dance to detect food under the soil. They aren’t super rare in NYC, but so cute.
Spring migration is a frenzy-birds in a hurry northbound in big pushes to stake out territory to breed. Fall migration has a different energy-calmer, quieter, more spread out. Lovely to see the return of this Wood Thrush to Central Park. Welcome back dear friend&safe travels. ?

So fitting that birders use the bird app. Other key apps are Merlin for ID’ing birds and eBird for logging your sightings and seeing others’ sightings, both made by the Cornell Ornithology Lab. On eBird, you can compile your life list, or all the different species you’ve seen in your life, as well as year list, county list, etc. Young birders hang out on Discord.
Instead of sharing same-day owl pics on Twitter and other social media sites, please consider sharing information about owl etiquette instead.

Who would look at this bird and decide to name it red-BELLIED? OK, so the belly has a tiny reddish section, but who could honestly see that in the field? Ring-necked ducks have a ring around their…bill. And, neither Tennessee warblers nor Nashville warblers hang out in Tennessee (except when migrating through).

Gulls identification is tricky: Many species are similar and the plumage changes pretty dramatically over the first few years of bird’s life: Here’s some help via @JohnMuirLaws https://t.co/gh0NaalwWA
