I had this picture from April in my Instagram, and I must have a slightly better resolved one in storage. But note the similar colors to the phalarope.

Summer Bird
A pair of scissor-tailed flycatchers nested again in Lincoln, after a few years. Same area West of Lincoln as last time.

Signs of Spring
Gnatcatcher, second earliest record for county.
Long-tailed duck we had for two weeks or more.

Rather a slow spring.
Cold weather has prevented a lot of outings and song birds have been few. Many pelicans going through.
Other than that, just American Pipits were easily spotted.

End of 2022
It was a typical year. The King Rail was an oddity a couple of Lancaster County birders found.
Out at Ft Robinson found a few birds. Cassin's Kingbird.
Magpies.
A Lesser Black-backed Gull ended up at a small marsh. Most years I find a few Northern Shrikes November and December.

Fall Warblers
My warbler list for 2022:
It's not embarrassing, but could be better. Somehow I don't find Wilson's as well as other people, and not every year.
Black-and-white warbler I have recorded 20 times. It tends to move a lot so there are few photos. But there is this one with the bird on the tree trunk, unlike most warblers.
