Here is a photo of a serac fall the size of a ten story apartment building and you can hardly notice it:
Andean Hillstar, crappy photo but a cool bird:

OK you guys, I'm getting behind on good photos. So, please forgive me if I inundate you for a couple of days.
I worked in Phoenix last week and birded at the Phoenix Desert Gardens.

No such thing as inundating anyone with bird photos. :) Great photos everyone. The names of CClarke's birds are as cool as the birds themselves. I adore the Muscovy photo. I swear you can see that bird's soul in his eyes.

Wow, this page is a keeper. Great birds, some nice bonus taxa, and it even has monutains!
Interesting article on the trad vs sport birding. Very true, alot like climbing's old vs. new camps. Hope they never invent that program that can id bird songs in the field or I'll be out of a job (or at least wait until I retire).
Dave, how about Round-tailed Ground-Squirrel? seems to be the common one there in that part of the world.
Off to the wilds of the Indio Maiz reserve in SE Nicaragua tomorrow. Trying to get an Ocellated Poorwill for diehard lister Macklin Smith (current ABA area life list record holder). Report to follow...

Beautiful stuff!
I think I learned a new bird word today: Feak. A bird feaks his/her beak (bill) to clean it off. My parrots do this a lot - wiping their bill on a branch to tidy it. Cool.
Or maybe I've been trolled. Either way, don't look it up on urban dictionary.

Lots of fun new bird pics from everyone from around the globe, spring is sprung! ;-)
DE - we're going to have to do an Orange county only birdapalooza since you have those areas dialed!
Some more from recent weeks in the SW...
