Thanks to everyone that helped us identify our mystery bird as a White-eye, probably a Japanese White-eye. You all are great! Gretchen Mavrovouniotis Irvine,...
I had the pleasure of hosting a visiting expert birder Tony Brake (from the bay area)yesterday. We started at Irvine Park then went to Bolsa Chica and finished...
Steve: I figured out the problem. My old e-mail address is on here, not my new one. I changed that, so it should arrive now. I'm very sorry... had no idea. ...
Went to look for the Laughing Gull and Common Tern at San Juan Creek but found neither, but did get a photo of a interesting Caspian Tern - see Flickr :...
Just wanted to ask, Don, as perhaps I've missed a posting (or else this was just an easy mistake), but is the Laughing Gull you mention in your post, below,...
Howdy, I posted a photo to the mystery birds folder in hopes that someone could tell me if it is of an Orange-crown Warbler that is actually showing an orange...
Photos in mystery birds. This first one, a gnatcatcher, has been called both a CA and a black-tailed (which isn't in range here). It was taken at Tucker...
All eyes and cameras were focused on the Clapper who came out and put on quite a show around the 6:00 pm hour. It was a true thrill to see the bird and not...

Saturday(18 May) landbird migrants seemed hard to come by, so decided to drop by Burris Basin/Anaheim Coves Park (BB/ACP) in the evening. Bird activity around...
Anthony, Despite expert opinion, I still had doubts about your bird being a Sharp-shinned, so I hope you don't mind that I forwarded your message to ... From:...
All: This is a response from Brian Wheeler to Brian Sullivan's comments. This being said, I have decided to leave the entry at eBird as Sharp-shinned and the...
I have been searching high and low for spring migration goodies the past few weekends with little luck - no eastern vagrants of any kind in OC for me. I've...
It was interesting to read Robert's post about the timing of Willow Flycatcher arrival, as--coincidentally enough--had my first of the season as well today....
Speaking of Willow Flycatchers.. I sent a question for ID help, and a flickr link to Robert of some poor quality images, and he replied it looked good for a...
I joined the feeder club. I left each of the two large feeders visibly half filled. I had to leave my Prius about a mile downhill. That's a difficult walk...
Today was the Sea & Sage Bi-monthly Laguna Niguel Regional Park Walk. A group of 28 active birders participated, lots of great sightings. The big highlight was...
