Because with possible sightings like these, well, what birder wouldn’t want to go?
Corey is a New Yorker who lived most of his life in upstate New York but has lived in Queens since 2008. He's only been birding since 2005 but has garnered a respectable life list by birding whenever he wasn't working as a union representative or spending time with his family. He lives in Forest Hills with Daisy and Desmond Shearwater. His bird photographs have appeared on the Today Show, in Birding, Living Bird Magazine, Bird Watcher's Digest, and many other fine publications. He is also the author of the American Birding Association Field Guide to the Birds of New York.
maybe there is hope of seeing a passenger pigeon still?
Ah, but it’s an old sign, you know, the times of old when woodcocks, bobwhite and the parakeet were still placed firmly amongst the songbirds.
