Important Note:

Rare Bird Updates will only happen during Midweek Update (MU) episodes, not Spotlight Bird (SB) episodes.

Birds from the rare bird list:

This bonus episode includes some highlights that Leo sighted during the Christmas Bird Count (CBC). Leo had an awesome time during the CBC and recommends that all listeners participate next year.

The allaboutbirds explainers:

This episode, Leo and Denali tell you about one of their favorite birds species: American Robin.

If you have any suggestions for future bird spotlights or just questions or comments, please email [email protected].

If you're wondering why there wasn't a rare bird update, it is because all confirmed sightings on the eBird rare bird list are continuing (many sightings of Townsend's Solitaires near other confirmed sightings). Stay tuned for next Midweek Update when Leo will go over some birds he reported during the Christmas Bird Count.
