A study on the breeding biology of Whitehead’s Broadbill was just published in May 2023 but leaves a bit of a puzzle as the breeding success is described as relatively high, meaning there should be other reasons for the population decline of the species. The Latin species name of the Penan Bulbul is ruficrissus.

So, while waiting for evolution to produce new birds for our life lists is inadvisable, we sometimes catch a break and every few years get a new species or two when some genetic research or study of breeding distribution presents enough evidence to split what was once considered a single species into a few new ones.

Ackerman’s new book is about owls and owl research–the knowledge recently and currently being discovered through DNA analysis, new-tech tracking and monitoring, and old-fashioned fieldwork under the auspices of organizations like the Global Owl Project and the Owl Research Institute.

By the way, if you google “Black Kite”, the very first result you get even before the Wikipedia entry on the bird is a company named Black Kite. It is mostly a question of economics – raising just one is troublesome enough given the resources required to feed and educate the chick.

White-browed Tit Warblers breed in high-altitude scrub, with a preference for junipers. Unfortunately for them, this is what raising chicks requires. Note: This trip was made with Alpinebirding , a Chinese tour company with very knowledgeable, English-speaking, and friendly guides – highly recommended to overseas birders.

Turtle Dove Turtle Doves are a protected species in Britain, in fact the status of Turtle Doves has become of so much concern there is a special project called Operation Turtle Dove created to look at how the huge declines in our British breeding populations might be halted. This was a little win perhaps, but hopefully the first of many.
