South Polar skua spotted in Oklahoma, far from its antarctic home
OKLAHOMA CITY, Aug. 29 () -- Bird-watchers in Oklahoma say they experienced the treat of observing an antarctic seabird making a rare visit to the U.S. interior.A South Polar Skua spent nearly a week at Lake Overholser near Oklahoma City,[url=http://www.christianelouboutinoutlet.com]Christian Louboutin Discount[/url], drawing bird-watchers from Colorado, Arkansas, New Mexico Nebraska and Missouri,[url=http://www.christianelouboutinoutlet.com]Louboutin Outlet[/url], The Oklahoman reported Wednesday.The bird lives in Antarctica and there have been only four confirmed sightings of the South Polar Skua in the interior United States."Just seeing it was amazing because this is a bird that I would have never been able to add to my list because I wouldn't be able to travel to Antarctica," local bird-watcher Donna Mackiewicz said."To be able to see it here is about as rare as it gets," said Mackiewicz, who has been bird watching for 40 years and has logged over 3,000 species in Oklahoma and in her travels.The sighting of the skua was initially reported in an email alert from ebird.org, a website devoted to bird-watching.Lloyd Leslie said the email prompted him to drive 100 miles to see the bird."It was fantastic," he said. "To see a bird like this you would usually have to take a boat and be in Antarctica."The skua spent about six days at Lake Overholser, bird-watchers said, before moving on.
