This is also why you very rarely find a photo of a giraffe on top of one of these posts – the other reason of course being that a giraffe photo would be relatively pointless in a birding blog.

Bird blogging in May always gives me the creeps. To us on the traditional side of the Atlantic, they’ll always belong to the family Iznogoudae , the birds who want to become warblers instead of the warblers. And do they ever try so hard.

Take one look at the viral blog, Pet Shaming , and it’s difficult to retain any illusions about our furry friends. Replace any uncovered trash cans with their covered counterparts, and get your family into the habit of closing the toilet lid. Well, maybe not spotless, but at least a cozy niche for the whole family to enjoy.
