This week, I once again found myself car-challenged. So I went to another nearby site, Las Mesas , which did not offer any unusual narrative. Instead, in this post I will wax philosophical, while sharing a few nice photos from that outing. Clay-colored Sparrows In about a month, I will have my 66th birthday. In between now and then, I will spend a week and a half in California, in the land where birding may mean walking on paved paths, or even on a wooden boardwalk built through the middle of a

Most weeks, I can blog about going somewhere a bit more exotic, and seeing something a bit more unusual for me. But this week, I had no car to drive, so I had to go on foot to the nature reserve on the far side of our neighborhood. This place, called Los Filtros Viejos (the Old Filters) because it used to be Morelia’s main water source, is actually a great place for birding.

The upper body has a salmon color and the lower a blackish/brownish tone. It has a curved tail kind of like how scorpions have it. Hasn’t moved since I first saw it (like 30 mins ago). I live in northeastern Mexico in case it helps.

For veterinary students, the heavy workload and long hours during clinical veterinary training appear to be the major stressor. However, certain groups of students seem to be affected by this pressure more than others, indicating a potential need for more targeted and intensified support.

Dip (verb): [in birding] to miss seeing a bird you were looking for Many times when we speak about the trips we’ve been on we concentrate on the things we experienced, the ruing of missed opportunities tends to be saved for nighttime conversations after a few drinks perhaps. Visiting Guyana brought with it the unavoidable expectation of seeing some mind boggling species – some endangered, some emblematic, others downright bizarre.

When waiting it felt like ages, but once I heard them it felt like they had returned way too early: Firecrests singing in our local park in Bonn. On the way to work in the mornings and on weekend walks, I was very glad to hear the songs of all the migrants arriving. In addition to the Firecrests, within a few days the songs of Common Chiffchaff, Willow Warbler, and Eurasian Blackcap started resonating through the freshly sprouting vegetation.

Ruili is a Chinese city right on the border to Myanmar, and a major border crossing. When I last visited the town almost 10 years ago, it had a Wild West feel, and Wikipedia claims that it is “an important location for trade with Myanmar, in both legal and illegal goods and services” but it seemed pretty tame to me this time. My major struggle in the city was with the equipment in a super modern hotel room, with instructions all in Chinese, preventing me from getting a hot shower and

I’ve been a regular visitor to the island of Cyprus for over 25 years, making around a dozen trips during this period, every one in search of birds. Tucked away at the extreme eastern end of the Mediterranean, Cyprus is regarded politically as part of Europe, but when it comes to birds it’s very much Middle Eastern in flavour, with a number of species that are hard or even impossible to find in Europe, plus a trio of endemics.

I just saw a tweet where horseshoe crabs are 350 million years old. And it got me thinking. Horseshoes are pretty damn new on the timeline of things. So what did humans call horseshoe crabs before horseshoes were invented? I googlered it and can’t really come up with anything.

How to animals have the secret to sleep??? Call it a high thought, call it what you want but I’ve always wondered how we’re meant to be one of the most intelligent creatures on the planets but we still haven’t figured out how to fall asleep? But you’re telling me my cat, the cat that attacks her own shadow knows how to fall asleep on demand?! WHY IS IT THAT I HAVE TO PRETEND TO BE ASLEEP FOR 30 MINUTES TO ACTUALLY RANDOMLY SOMEHOW HOW BE ASLEEP WITHOUT REMEMBERING HOW IN THE MORNING???

Hello, I hope someone can help me out or point me in the right direction. My mother recently passed and she has two cats and one of which was her baby is very adoptable. She’s an older cat. I put her on the Nextdoor app and a few people told me she’s a Russian blue. She’s about 12 years old. She’s been spayed and her front paws have been declawed (I know that’s not a normal thing now, but back in the day that was fairly normal for people to do that to their cats).

I love animals and to be honest I'm not a big fan of people. But unfortunately I don't have a university degree and even if I wanted to or could I can't afford the time and money to become a vetinarian. Most other jobs with animals that I know of are volunteer so you don't make money. I'm willing to study, educate, work experience, whatever it takes.

Hello everyone. I found this egg in the middle of my yard on the ground about half an hour ago, i didn't want to leave it there because it seemed misplaced, we have a dog walking around freely with a good appetite and the temperature outside is 3°C. When i picked the egg up it was already cold, it's around 2.5 by 2cm in size. After picking it up i carefully washed it under lukewarm water and kept it in my hand for warmth, now i have placed it in a small box and under a lamp (you can see

I remember reading about them as a huge hit but saw an article today saying that Tian Tian (the female) was recalled to China and retired because she developed a fear of people likely due to being on display for so long in the zoo. Also seems very cruel that the zoo tried to so many failed and forced artificial insemination procedures on her simply to try and make extra money from cubs as apparently they were paying a million dollars a year just in loan fees to display the pandas.

Hi! I'm researching animal behaviors for a game I'm working on. When searching online there's a vast amount of information about how animals scare off predators and/or intimidate them, but I'm specifically interested in positive interactions (which has proven to be much harder to find) So, I have 2 questions for you all: Do you guys know of any examples where animals have specific behaviors that they do to gain attention from humans ?
