    Mealy Parrot

    Another longe-range shot that doesn't deserve to push someone else's off the front page of the gallery, but is new for the database. Glen

    Scaled Pigeon

    A very poor shot taken from much too far, but nonetheless a new species for the database. Surely someone can post a better shot.

    two Puffbirds

    Long-distance shots of two Puffbirds for the database. Both of these species are fairly common in the Panama lowlands, though the White-necked is seen more often because it tends to perch high in open trees and snags, while the Black-breasted prefers to stay hidden by foliage in the canopy...

    Updating taxonomy in database?

    As previously discussed, the list of species used in the bird database is derived from an older version of the Sibley & Monroe taxonomy that has since been updated. My question is whether volunteers working on the database are encouraged or even authorized to make changes to the English and/or...

    Plover ID?

    Is this Black-bellied Plover, also known as Grey Plover (Pluvialis squatarola) or American Golden-Plover (P. dominica)? And is it a juvenile or molting adult? The pictures were taken Nov. 1 at dusk, hence the low quality, in a farm field in Ipswich, Massachusetts, about a mile from the coast...

    Gerd Rossen's Kingfisher

    This is an obvious choice, since this photo already has by far the most views of any in the Gallery. But I have looked at many thousands of bird photos and I don't think I've ever seen one more technically perfect than this. A testament to the power of digiscoping. Glen...

    Text or links for trip reports?

    After posting the text of my Puerto Rico trip report here, it occured to me that the report is already available on-line on Blake Maybank's website, and I could have just posted a link to it on birdforum. Which method if preferred here - a link or the report itself?

    Puerto Rico, January 2002

    My wife Carol Chetkovich and I visited Puerto Rico from 1/20/02 to 1/27/02. We had a great time and heartily recommend the island to fellow birders. The number of species is not nearly as high as tropical areas on the mainland but Puerto Rico is very friendly and the birding was quite...
