Hi Haven't posted for a while because we have been away for 4 months. Mostly Mexico and Arizona. Too many birds to mention but lots of adventures but here is Streaked-backed Oriole taken in Mexico if the attachment works. It looks like we aren't using Photobucket anymore?? Have to get out and do some atlasing now.

Welcome back. They are great birds. Good work. We were wondering where you two were just yesterday. Super photos, that must have been exciting to see the Oriole and American Oystercatcher. Wow! We are looking forward to more. What area are you atlasing, so that if we see something in that area we can let you know?

Hi Bruce and Joanne Thanks for the comments on the pictures. I am atlasing in Abbotsford from the border to the Fraser. If you see anything on Sumas mountain let me know. See you out there. Broad-billed Hummingbird. I got few branches in the way but you can tell what it is. Taken in Patagonia Az. Birthplace of the Patagonian picnic table effect.

Welcome back Len! Spectacular pictures and that oriole is a stunning bird. I bet a lot of species were seen. Looking forward to reading your reports again.

The little Broad-billed is a beauty. Branches or not, you caught him perfectly. We will certainly let you know if we see anything in your area for atlasing. Cheers J & B

Thanks for the kind words Gord. How about a Black-throated Sparrow taken in Joshuia Tree NP last month.
