Veery has temporarily moved! The Birdfreak Team is partially split for the summer as Veery spends a few months working in Jefferson City, Missouri. Join in on her adventures through a new state and her quest to answer this question: How’s the birding in mid-Missouri?
I have officially started my State of Missouri bird list. I’ve decided to count everything I (and any visiting Birdfreaks) find within the state line. I am curious to find out more about Missouri hotspots, but I haven’t done much research yet. I do want to find Road Runners and Scissor-tailed Flycatchers, but I will have to travel a bit to find those two! Many of the birds that have made the list so far are from Binder Park, a busy city park that contains a large lake and some good birdy possibilities. (more…)

Whew, what a busy and cool week! Last night we had our first NCIOS (Rockford Bird Club) meeting of the 2008-2009 season and got caught up with all the birders we hadn’t seen all summer.
Plus, there is a whole onslaught of new things going on at Birdfreak.com. Plus, tomorrow Birdfreak is leading a field trip to Illinois Beach State Park (although it looks like there will be a LOT of rain). So, look for a lot of big things in the upcoming few weeks.
Enjoy this Phriday Photo of an Eastern Wood-Pewee with a moth.

And a bonus… Arizona sniffing the pine tree!
