[QUOTE="AlexC, post: 3167121, member: 27416"] We've all got 'em. Some are tough ones that just never seem to happen. Some are downright embarrassing. But what better place than the listing forum to include a list of those that have eluded our lists? I'll start, though I'm sure I'll add more the more I think about it. [B]Pine Warbler[/B]. Where the hell are you? This is getting ridiculous. [B]Harlequin Duck[/B]. Regional? Yes. Inexcusable based on my past geography? Yes. [B]Northern Bobwhite[/B]. I've accepted that I'm never going to see this bird. [B]Red Knot[/B]. It's knot meant to be. [B]Northern Pygmy-Owl[/B]. I'm pretty sure this bird is made up. [B]Calliope Hummingbird[/B]. Grr. Been so close. [B]Northern Shrike[/B]. [B]Townsend's Solitaire[/B]. [B]Hermit Warbler[/B]. [B]Golden-winged Warbler[/B]. Many wouldn't consider this a blocker because it's relatively rare. But I've banded countless Brewster's hybrids, and have even seen 2 Lawrence's crossbacks in the wild. Where's mom/dad?? [/QUOTE]
