The Bird Banter Podcast #19 with Brooks Episode Additional Details


Thursday Will Brooks and I recorded an episode for The Bird Banter Podcast, and I expect it to be published Monday June 10th. Here are some details related to or relavent to the episode:

Here is a link to a recent WOS newsletter where Will published an article about his research. http://wos.org/documents/wosnws/wosnews179.pdf

Here is a link to the ABC Birding club site and a writeup about his presentation to our club. http://abcbirding.com/will-brooks-tells-us-the-secrets-of-white-crowned-sparrows-march-26-2019/

This is a link to Will’s eBird profile.  https://ebird.org/pnw/profile/NDE3OTMx/US-WA-053

Some of the really cool birds Will found last year include:
-Long-tailed Jaeger at Point Defiance (links are to my eBird lists when I saw the birds) https://ebird.org/pnw/view/checklist/S48534820
-Clay-colored Sparrow and Rusty Blackbird at 134th Street in Puyallup. https://ebird.org/pnw/view/checklist/S49804659
-Glaucous Gull at the Puyallup River https://ebird.org/view/checklist/S41718496
-Short-eared Owl at McNeil St Trail Overlook. https://ebird.org/pnw/view/checklist/S50277333
-Yellow-breasted Chat in the Ohop Valley. https://ebird.org/view/checklist/S46280722

These are just a few that I could find on my 2018 Pierce County eBird list. I know there were many more I didn’t see of cannot recall.

I hope you enjoy the episode with Will.

Good birding. Good day!
