Males aren't just smaller, they're slimmer. You may notice a bit of difference
in head shape, too, male more rounded, female more flat on top. These
particular birds differ in their face pattern, but I think that's an individual
variation, this male has a more completely black side of the face,
I spent from 3:20 until 5:00 in the Seybolt/Stahl/Canoga and martin
road areas with no luck on the Gyrfalcon. Here's the story. The first
approach to Stahl had a cloud of starlings but no sign of a raptor. The
second time they were up again with a Sharp-shinned through the group

Yup. They have been using BR and EZ's perch for weeks now-wondering when/if
they will get the boot.

Just one clarification to Chris's post: this page is slightly out-of-date
with respect to one aspect of the RBA, the link to subscribe to the list.
Due to spamming a month or two ago, I had to deactivate this link. If you

Around 8:20am today, one was feeding in the same area you saw the male feeding
two days ago. Btw, how do you distinguish gender? Just relative size?

I have some of the same birding behaviors as Jody but one activity I do support
whole-heartedly is the regular and frequent use of Ebird. Ebird lets me keep
track of my bird sightings almost effortlessly. Most importantly, it lets me

Scott Haber and I drove around the area for about an hour this morning with
no luck. We did see a flying Pileated Woodpecker that we hoped would get
plucked from the air, but no luck. There are a lot of Crows, Red-tailed

Good Morning,
Walking into work this morning in Beebe Hall a bit bleary eyed after arriving
home in the early morning from Tucson Arizona I remembered to look up at
Bradfield as I have been doing nearly every day for a month looking for the
Peregrine Falcons. To my astonishment I saw one bird
The great part of using eBird as Bob does is that rare bird sightings output to
all users that have the rare bird / needs alert notifications setup in their
account. No extra work involved and potentially reaching more observers than
the text alert system. I highly recommend using BirdLog NA
I believe it is clear not everyone uses e-bird. Which I have found frustrating
when traveling to new areas. Janet Akin

Hi All,
I received a lot of emails today about my response to Dave Nutter’s great
opening rant about folks who don’t report sightings of birds in a timely
manner. I sense that I did not articulate part of my anti-rant as clearly as I
