Thank you for posting about this! I participated this year for the first time and it was so fun!
I used the Merlin app to ID birds by sound (I have a lot to learn, lol) and realized there was a relatively rare bird (for my area) hanging around! I was able to see it up in a tree once the app tipped me off.
Congrats! I’ve been participating for several years now and am always excited to add a “new” bird to my list. Ebird is great for keeping track of your life list, too. I recently added a quail that I hadn’t seen for decades!
That is super exciting about the quail! 👏 Years ago, my mom and I saw a group of rare greater prairie chickens/pinnated grouse, and they were beautiful. Hopefully I can find some again.
Welcome to /o/STEM! This circle is dedicated to science, technology, engineering, maths, and medicine, where you can discuss all things STEM, seek career advice, share learning resources, and pose “ask an expert” questions to the Ovarit STEM community.
Please provide a descriptive title for your posts and add a flair that best describes your post topic. We encourage posters to add links to relevant articles or research papers in their posts and comments.
Since our focus is on STEM, posts should not be focused on politics, ethics, or philosophy. Any discussion on popular science or medicine (to include COVID-19) must be based on scientific principles and research.
This is also not the place to discuss diet, lifestyle, alternative medicine, or psychology. For these topics please check out o/women which is a general discussion circle and o/womenshealthlounge which is a support sub for health issues.
Feb 17-20, 2023 As little as 15 mins of your time can contribute to this year’s biggest global birding event.

Such important research the lab is doing! 👍
