December through February is that slow time of the bird year when nothing much of interest turns up, right? In some years that statement may ring true, but it was hardly accurate this winter. Some truly unexpected birds were found along with many lesser vagrants. As usual plenty of continuing rarities were regularly reported at their respective locations.
Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine
Grant them eternal rest, o Lord
et lux perpetua luceat eis
and let perpetual light shine upon them.
Te decet hymnus, Deus, in Sion
You shall have praise in Zion, o God,
et tibi redetur votum in Jerusalem.
and homage shall be paid to you in Jerusalem.
Exaudi orationem meam.
Hear my prayer.
Ad te omnis caro veniet.
All flesh shall come before you.
Kyrie eleison.
Lord, have mercy.
Christe eleison.
Christ, have mercy.
Kyrie eleison.
Lord, have mercy.
