Some field guides list this species as Iridoprocne bicolor. I have chosen to refer to it based on David Allen Sibley's "Field Guide to Birds of Western North America," arguably one of the most comprehensive guidebooks since Roger Tory Peterson's "A Field Guide to Western Birds."
365Caws is now in its 14th year of publication, and was originally intended to end after 365 days. It has sometimes been difficult for me to find new material, particularly during the winter months, but now as I enter my own twilight years, I cannot guarantee that I will be able to provide daily posts. It is my hope that along the way I may have inspired someone to a greater curiosity about the natural world. If so, I can rest, content in the knowledge that my work here has been done.
