Finding a Winter Raptor & Lifer! Birding a Snowy Weekend in Massachusetts [Week 6]

Описание: Week 6 of my Little Big Year was abbreviated because of another coastal Massachusetts snowstorm... which mean I had to pack a lot of birding in on only one weekend day!

And boy, did I do just that. I traveled to from Salisbury to Cape Ann in search of adding birds to my list. And, to my surprise, I did just that! Not only did I add FOUR birds to the year list, but I also found a LIFER and a subspecies lifer! A day that started with hesitation I'd be able to see much of anything ended with great birding success.

This series follows my birding year as I try to document and photograph as many species as possible — focusing on winter birds, local hotspots, and the occasional surprise. Some days are about rare birds, others are about slowing down and really watching what’s in front of you.

If you enjoy winter or coastal birding, and realistic field days (not just highlight reels), this one’s for you.
