Hello, Birders.
Although not about bird identification per se, a recent article by Sultan Hameed and coauthors will be of interest to F-IDers, I believe. The topic of the article is vagrancy, and the authors have developed a model that accurately predicts fallouts of Asian birds at Attu Island, Alaska.
Here's a link to the paper itself:
