Aloft and lost: Here are the 5 ‘accidental’ bird sightings in Wyoming this year Lander resident Frank Stetler was driving eastbound over the Boysen Reservoir bridge in mid-May when he got a call from a fellow serious bird nerd.

Wyoming was the recipient of an unusually high number of #vagrantbirds this year, includng a vagrant tundra bean goose, a common crane, a crested caracara, a yellow-bellied flycatcher and a Grace’s warbler. Read @koshywrites.bsky.social @wyofile.com: www.wyomingnews.com/news/local_n...

This ruddy shelduck was visiting our patch and hanging out with the Egyptian geese to which it is related - beautiful bird. There's been a few reported and they live in Holland so maybe the next coloniser

More visitors from out west: this time it was a Western Tanager at my friend's bird feeder! I shot it through glass so it's not very sharp. #westerntanager #vagrantbirds #birds #birdphotography
