http://birdingbybike.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 31, 2009. I have created this blog to document my attempt at a BIGBY. Ear) in 2010. I will use non-motorized means of transport (eg, walk, bike, ski, etc.) to see as many bird species as possible within the city limits of Calgary, Alberta. A list of the different green birding categories and definitions, including BIGBY, can be found at Green Birding in Central California. My BIGBY is part of a larger birding competition, organized by Nature Calgary. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Birding By Bike: February 2010
http://birdingbybike.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 14, 2010. Crossbills in the Willow. Three Red Crossbills were photographed at the beginning of January from the Willow Park. Several other crossbills were calling and singing from surrounding trees, the majority were White-winged Crossbills, but there were at least two additional Red Crossbills. A magpie flew into a nearby poplar to investigate the noise and commotion, scattering the crossbills. Famished and cold, I quickly headed over to Southcentre Mall. Saturday, February 13, 2010.
