1992-93 fall and winter sightings

Published in 1993

Autumn and winter are times of excitement for birders, as we lick our lips in anticipation of tasty vagrants. This fall was satisfying in that regard, with two fIrst Alabama records; the winter yielded several choice rarities. Numbers of non-passerine migrants seemed good, though waterfowl were scarce at the coast this winter. Good numbers of transient passerines were noted at the coast in the fall.
