I met a couple of birders who had hired a guide to go to Khao Yai National Park not far N.E. of Bangkok for one day. They saw 144 species of birds I believe they said. In one day!! But I believe it. We hear so many birds every day anywhere we are in Thailand.

Loving the bird list tracking. It should get real interesting once you hit Europe again.

You really were lucky. Even by the next day it was changing rapidly. I imagine Rillito will be back to just a dry wash again by tomorrow.

I’ll remind you of this tentative offer when we get together.

But what about the shoelaces?

Thanks! I had great cast!

I’m very glad you could make it, also and it would be great to meet you in Spain and/or somewhere else. We had a great time last night!

A feast for the eyeballs

I’m loving this bird sighting list! And a double Branham sighting on top of that makes for a satisfying journal entry. :)

The clouds are putting on quite the show.

So lucky to catch this amazing view on our short stay in Tucson. With all this rain the spring flowers should be beautiful when we're back here.

Really glad I was able to make it to dinner. Had a very enjoyable time. Looking forward to possibly seeing you in Spain.

I’m thrilled we were able to get in a wonderful ride despite the little hail shower and other warning shots from the clouds. There were beautiful things to see in every direction. Tucson never disappoints. Compliments to Rachael on the highlight reel. Great fun getting to know you both.

I liked this too. Grackles are a surprisingly iridescent bird if you see them in a favorable light, but they make for a good silhouette too.

Ooh, a bird calendar! I’ll have to hang on to that thought.
