Monthly Roundup: Jun 2022

/ by raghavnarayanswamy | Leave a comment

June was a relatively quiet month, but with records of rarities like Black-thighed Falconet and Pied Stilt, it’s hard to call it a boring one!

Highlights

  • At Pulau Tekong, continued presence of breeding Pied Stilts. Will this be the year this species is finally observed in a publicly accessible site?
  • Eighth confirmed record of Black-thighed Falconet, at Lorong Halus.

This report is made possible by analyzing the many hundreds of checklists uploaded to eBird every month, identifying and merging sightings, and compiling these records into the required format. This process is almost entirely automated, with light editing by our team as needed. We hope that we did not overlook any eBird records of species listed in this report, and that the report is factually correct.
