International birding tourism after the Covid-19 – what will change?

10,000 Birds

We are stuck. In a world we made. I remember a cartoon showing the prehistoric Earth as a vast forest with tiny villages fenced-off due to dangerous animals, and the today’s Earth as a wasteland, with a few tiny forests remaining, fenced-off due to abominable humans. It may look like a cartoon, but while birding Philippines, Phoebe Snetsinger literally slept in a prison, because its buffer zone held the only remaining forest in the agricultural landscape.

Teaching Ornithology in High Schools

10,000 Birds

In 2018, I read an article in Birding magazine by Jeff R. Manker about teaching ornithology in high schools. (It was later re-published on the All About Birds website.) That article left an impression and I have wondered what became of Manker’s effort to create a high school ornithology curriculum. Manker’s thesis is that ornithology is an excellent gateway to students becoming science majors in college and, more broadly and longer-term, conservation-minded citizens.

Best Bird of the Weekend (First of February 2021)

10,000 Birds

February feels like a step forward to our next season, but we’ll still be as mired in winter or summer, depending on your hemisphere, at month’s end as we are right now. Learn to love it! I’m really saying this for myself, since I absolutely hate being cold but live in a place that LOVES to be cold. The silver lining to these frigid winters is that birds are very active around my house, so I can enjoy cool cold-weather birds like Red-breasted Nuthatch from a warm perch.

One Step Forward, One Step Back

10,000 Birds

Those who read my posts each week (and I know you’re out there, a few of you have said so) know that 2021 is shaping up to be a decidedly bipolar birding year for me here in Michoacán. It has been, in fact, the opposite of what they say about the Star Trek movies: to date, my odd-numbered outings have been much better than the even-numbered ones.

A flooded landscape

10,000 Birds

In Broome we have been getting some good isolated rain events recently. They are so isolated that it could be raining very close by, but not actually where you are. There has also been another tropical low that came very close to Broome dumping heavy rains and then continued around the coast of Western Australia. It didn’t become a tropical cyclone thankfully and just brought rain.
