I had a good close to the year, with 4 lifers seen on December 30.
1)Merlin- hunting a dove unsuccessfully
2)Vesper sparrow- seen in the same area as the Merlin and 2 birds I had been chasing for a while
3) Rufous hummingbird
4) Common loon- a group of 8 seen a couple hundred yards from shore just outside of Houston
When I started birding 18 months ago, I thought I'd never be able to identify a sparrow, and now I have seen 14 new world sparrow species! The lifers are fewer and farther between now, but that just makes them all the more exciting.
