Do you love your birds of summer? I sure hope so because they’ll be hanging around your neighborhood for a while yet. One sure way to heighten the pleasure of a special bird sighting is to brag about it later. Step right up and share your best bird of the weekend.

While I have many excellent actual avians to choose from, my best bird of the weekend was definitely the eponymous effigy of this year’s 12th Annual Chicken Inferno. A report of the festivities is forthcoming! Corey’s best bird was his amazing American White Pelican at Jamaica Bay.

What was your best bird of the weekend? Tell us in the comments section about the rarest, loveliest, or most fascinating bird you observed.  If you’ve blogged about your weekend experience, you should include a link in your comment.
