I will again spend a combined 2
months in California, plan trips to the UK, Australia, and Malaysia in the
summer, and to Bellingham in March. I am also likely to go to Chicago for a few
days in August. Based on this I will set my World goal at 600 species and will
set a North American target of 350 species, although I have not reached the
latter in the past three years of similar travel. I will set targets of 200 for
both Arizona and California, with 175 in both Coconino and Santa Clara.
Lifers will be hard to come by, but
I have hopes of seeing the Red-footed Booby at the harbor in Santa Cruz in
January. (The bird has been there for the past month.) Otherwise Bell’s
Sparrow is my best bet. This is found along Mines Road close to San Jose.
