The rarely seen "Killing-Spree" posture of the Least Bittern. Martinez, CA.
So. I am in Mexico at the moment, but writing from California. Try to wrap your mind around that. Just wanted you to know that the BB&B family hasn't forgotten about you.
Big nerd-news to me was the creation of Galapagos Frigatebird. Head on over to Birdingblogs.com for more information about that. Apparently, they are genetically distinct from other Magnificent Frigatebirds, and are significantly larger. So if you've been to the Galapagos Islands and were lucky enough to lay eyes on some Man-o-war birds, you probably saw these things. And with 1,000 breeding pairs, this is now one of the world's rarest seabirds. Whoa! Yet another reason for me to get down there.
I know it's hard to go on without me, but I'll be back in the nerdosphere in a flash. In the meantime....do what you think is best. Hasta!
