The Zoo episode focuses on two Pink Pigeon couples: The Stud and Serendipity, a male and female that the zoo people hope will mate and produce a viable egg, and Thelma and Louise, a same-sex pair-bonded couple who the zoo people hope will incubate the egg and nurture the chick. Don’t these birds care about propagating their species?

More important, what are you doing this weekend and will you be birding? I’m headed to Costa Rica for a long, presumably bird-bountiful weekend in the capable custodianship of Patrick O’Donnell. Also be sure to come back Monday to share your best bird of the weekend ! Do you think of October when you see pumpkins?

Whither the wayward bird? But sometimes, the bird would have been better off staying home. Well, the early bird(ers) on Harris were the ones lucky enough to get the tick, because a mere two days after it was reported, the Needletail flew into a wind turbine and perished.

By the time you read this post I will still be in New York but I’ll be looking forward to leaving for the 2011 Midwest Birding Symposium in Lakeside, Ohio. Note that none of the aforementioned teams are named for birds — could there be a connection? ) I know I have forgotten other Ohio-based bird bloggers.

What sets Moorcroft Manor apart from the other (lovely I rush to add) places I stayed at in Southern Africa was the sheer numbers of birds I could see in the grounds. Moorcroft Manor isn’t just a lovely place to stay, its a great birding location in its own right. The fields around the gardens added some other great birds.
