New Online Bird Field Guide ( with song ID); 7/17 AKestrel sighting

Janet Schumacher alerted me to a terrific online bird identification website set up by Partners in Flight.It only requires your registration and password setup. Worth the recommended bookmark especially with fall migration now occurring with some shorebirds (Hudsonian Godwit and White Pelican in JBWR)  and warblers soon to come. (one reported Lousiana Waterthrush in Central Park yesterday)
