101st & 102nd Birds for 2020

Yellow-billed Cuckoo

Last week I added two more yearbirds to my list. The first one a  Black Tern (Chlidonias niger) I saw at Long Beach, Christ Church but overlooked, but thanks to the keen eyes of John Webster, who photographed it, and our local expert Ed Massiah, for identifying it.   The second bird, a Yellow-billed Cuckoo (Coccyzus americanus) is a common migrant at this time of the year.  These two birds brought my tally to 102 just eight species adrift of my target.

+8
