What’s the most excited you’ve been to see a “common” #bird for the first time? For me, definitely the European Robin. Lost my mind. Laying down in the park in Edinburgh with my camera like a crazy person. What an icon.

I’m not the kind of birder who chases rare #birds but this one chased me. In 2021 I had a White-winged Dove spend nearly a week in my yard in Maine.
