The Bird Banter Podcast Episode #3 with Bruce LaBar
In this episode I talk with Bruce LaBar.  Bruce has the #1 lifelist of bird species seen in Washington State at 452 and in Pierce County 285. Lest you think Bruce is easing off he is currently the #1 eBird lister in both areas for 2019 too! 
You can find Bruce LaBar on facebook @brucelabar or Instagram @tacomabruce
Links to resources mentioned in the podcast.
Westport Seabirds is the longest running database of pelagic trip sightings in the world.  Bruce is a regular spotter on these trips. 
Bruce is at the spotting scope in this 1982 photo from Dan Roberson's Website on the history of California Birding.  
Shearwater Journeys is Debbie Love Shearwater's Pelagic Birding Company that runs out of Monterey Bay and other northern California ports.  I believe she may be stopping leading these trips soon if not already.
