Great shot!!

Agree with Red-necked Grebe. Where in Union County? You should put it on eBird, there haven't been many seen in NJ so far this year.

Up until recently it was Leconte's Sparrow but then got the one attached. Most wanted now are probably Swallow-tailed Kite or Anhinga. Both are tough in NJ but not impossible.

I'm out too.

Here's a female Mallard that paired up with an American Wigeon drake. The second picture is the resultant off spring.

Killer shot!!

A Fox Sparrow from today. Been recovering from a knee replacement so haven't been able to get out. Was finally able to do a bit of car birding today though

Interesting article;

I’ve got birds that have crossed international boundaries to get to me but I haven’t crossed any to get to them yet. Sadly I haven’t gone international since before I started birding .

NIce bird but how did you post the image? The 'Insert URL' button does post a working link, but the 'Insert Image' returns a broken 'Image' icon. Attempting to paste did nothing.

Thanks.
