The Common Loon was again at Silver Lake today, although I couldn't find it on the way back (long ride). But at Pamela Baker Park, in Eagle, there was a Greater White-fronted Goose hanging out with some Canadians.
My ride was 21 miles, and I found 38 species, including a finale by a Bald Eagle as I was leaving Esther Simplot Park. He flew right towards me, did a loop over my head, and then headed for the river. Nice way to end a long ride.

Sorry to be so slow in reporting this, but there was an adult Common Loon at Silver Lake (Lake Harbor) at around 1 PM today. I saw a disturbance in the water and watched, expecting one of the "usual suspects," when up popped the loon.
I also encountered my first BH Cowbird today, although I identified by sound because I didn't see him.

Just had a breeding plumage male Yellow-rumped (Audubon's variety) Warbler come in. He was fly-catching midges from one of the aspen trees. Didn't stay around for long. Definitely, in a hurry...places to go & see!

Hi birders,We were just heading out when a Chukar flew into our yard at about 9.30 am. We got back about 12 and it is still there. It has been picking at grass seed stems (we have not yet mowed this year), and items on the ground. The bird is very tame, so we wondered if it could be an escape?Anyone have any ideas, or if we need to do anything for it? I guess it may fly out again when it is ready to leave.Amy Bechtel & John Shortis.

FOY hummingbird! Location, Pocatello east bench. Just stopped snowing, temp 32°, 8PM and had our first hummer of 2026. Pretty sure it was a male calliope but the light was poor. Glad I put the feeders up early!

Came across a pair of American Pipits along the Snake River. Both were paler adults in breeding plumage with buffy-faint reddish breasts. Walking along river edge & bobbing when stopped. Been awhile since I've seen Pipits.

Boise River Road (outside Notus to Parma) has several fields that have been flooded. I didn’t see any shorebirds today other than Killdeer but this area has been a good place to look for migrating shorebirds in the spring.
