Yo! I'm a relatively new birder (2 years since creating my eBird account) with a cheap setup for photography; just my phone camera and binoculars. Maybe one day I'll invest in proper gear but I'm happy with what I got going on now. Mostly bird in the greater Phoenix area, AZ, as it's where I reside.

Still cannot tell apart Common Chiffchaffs and Willow Warblers. Any tips? They're usually not the most vocal around me too... makes it extra confusing!

One of my favorite Zorro mask wearing birds. So lucky I have a regular living so close by. 🌳 🌿

Scrub Jay? ❌
American Robin? ❌
Rufous-crowned Sparrow? ❌
Red-tailed Hawk? ❌

Wait those are all American birds... What if we mixed them all up and made the result vaguely Mediterranean?

Rufous-tailed Scrub-Robin? ✅✅✅

Sorry I've been kind of MIA for a bit now. Big life changes recently. Let this south-west Asian bird give you a hint as to what happened 😅

spotting a red-tailed hawk!

had to do a full-size raptor to test out a transition into the "lifer minigame" from the in-flight minigame. still some edges to polish but looking good generally

Apparently this exact type of Chuckwalla Lizard (carrot-tailed) only lives on South Mountain Preserve in Phoenix. How lucky am I to casually run into one?! 🦎 🌵

Hold up! A woodpecker sucking on tree sap that's not a Sapsucker?! Blasphemy.
