10 weeks in SEAsia. Great wildlife; even better people. It’s great to escape.

5-10k in vismig each morning the last 3 days at my place N of Los Angeles. A tiny snippet - it's bloody insane!


Just a tiny bit of my love life in the mountains north of Los Angeles.


Back to my old stomping grounds. 50k birds today - what a christening for the new house.


3rd spring watching daytime migration in mtns N of LA. Fridays flight was massive (20k) and 1000s lot of days - follow Daniels Tejon Pass count on trektellen.org. Night flight also big and low When there are few birds, the scenery and flowers are okay…

Even on Lake Wort Beach pier it is cold this morning. The often spectacular sunrise is a panorama of wild cloud formations. A great way to start the day. Merry Christmas to everyone.

Apologies to those who were not aware that I am at the Río Grande Valley Birding Festival. Today is the last day. I will be in San Antonio tomorrow morning and Kerrville tomorrow evening and Tuesday; Tucson Thursday. Hope to see you at one of these events.


1st time keynoting at Hummerbird Celebration in Rockport/Fulton. Great festival - hummingbird show was truly spectacular. Port Aransas tonight was jammed with birds - between 5-10,000 Black Terns was amazing. A LTJA & SAGU were brilliant surprises - fitting end to a great weekend

3000 WETA yesterday, and probably nearly as many on Friday plus 1000’s of other migrants. Smaller no’s than last year - but it’s not too late😀.

It was Sams Covid-delayed graduation at University of Bristol - the only place she wanted to go. Despite lots of adversity, she never wasted a second, did so much, and got a First In International Business. Being a proud Dad does in no way do justice to how I feel.

Storms, wild skies, stunning flowers & windy days. Love it. A March flock of 15 Sabs Gulls on local lake,a big surprise. Other goodies going over the pass were 100 hummingbirds (mostly m. Rufus) in 1 hour and 200 Swainson’s Hawks in 2 hours. Great to be out in my amphitheater.

I never thought I could live away from the ocean. That’s changing. Love the the vast open spaces, variety of landscapes, different climates and all within a 20 minute drive. Throw in massive unknown migrations and… Hope you can escape to to such a natural and healthy world.
