Out of interest in maintaining a "life list", i decided to assemble a gallery listing the bird species of North America i have photographed. So, on display is a collection of images copied from other galleries of mine (wild photographs only). 1 image selected per species. As i capture "better" shots, i may swap some images out...and certainly i will add any new species. Currently there are 678 species listed in total. In 2017 i managed to add 10 species. 5 so far in 2018.

May (5): Chestnut-backed Chickadee, MacGillivray's Warbler, Hermit Warbler, Marbled Murrelet, Tufted Puffin
Heard and or seen but not photographed!: Buff-collared Nightjar, Common Poorwill, Western Screech Owl, Montezuma Quail, Elegant Trogon, Virginia's Warbler, Northern Pygmy Owl, Pacific Wren, Cassin's Vireo.
