Perhaps when you are here in November, we can go find you a chukar.<br /><br />Chuck, I will take a look at it. I have one bird book app on my iPhone, but I find the pictures to be so small that it is really hard to use for two birds that are almost identical. At some point, Julie gets a new iPad and I get her old one. That could definitely help.

It not only has typically 10+ pictures of each bird but also multiple examples of its calls. And lots of details about the birds. I think it was about $14 on iTunes but I think you might find it worth the money.<br /><br />Chuck TerrienChuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11690209945182535180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575228.post-31943510575522447892011-08-31T14:56:24.503-06:002011-08-31T14:56:24.503-06:00My guesses: Northern harrier (used to be marsh ha...My guesses: Northern harrier (used to be marsh hawk) (white rump is definitive); long-billed curlew with Franklin's gulls; rock wren; red-necked phalarope (out of breeding plumage); and western grebe. Nice collection of sightings! Surely sent me back to the field guides!Emily J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05030892770386708192noreply@blogger.com
