Second Chances

4 The Love Of Animals

Second Chances A battered pick-up truck rattles up to the curb of a neglected house. The vacant property’s lawn is infused with crab-grass, clover and dandelions. Wispy white puffs of dandelion tufts drift above the yard resembling tiny wayward ghosts. … Continue reading → The post Second Chances appeared first on 4 The Love of Animals.

Urban birding at its best

10,000 Birds

And then, two canids appeared in my scope field of view… My plan was that the downpour should finally be over in the morning, so I could go birding. The rain had plans of its own and now, 36 hours later, it is still going strong. However, I am a stubborn person. In a boring drizzle, I am driving along the dyke that separates the Danube backwaters from the arable fields (the only dyke in the area where driving is allowed).

Viva Montana

10,000 Birds

New York has wonderful birds. I love New York’s birds with a passion, from the parti-colored pigeons to the spring warbler fiesta to Jamaica Bay’s herons and ibises (but not the sandpipers. Never the sandpipers.). Still, there’s something about the moment, at six am, when two Sandhill Cranes stand tall out of the marsh grass and set up a back-and-forth call that echoes off the mountains.

Where Are You Birding This Fourth Weekend of July 2016?

10,000 Birds

Much of the United States labors under what is being called a heat dome , and that doesn’t even touch on the flames being set off by our political conventions. As the temperatures rise, I like to think about crisp blue glaciers, like the ones I saw ages ago in Alaska. But then I recall all those wasted opportunities and how I wasn’t even birding back then; the way I feel hardly qualifies as cool.

Keeping up with the times

10,000 Birds

When I was 12 or 13, I was given a hand-me-down camera, and started taking pictures, It was at this point, or at least very close to it, that I started pointing camera at birds. To this day, there is still that one early photo, a Forrester’s tern, caught beautifully in flight, every feather in amazing detail, that is the basis for my start. Birds, and my photography have been linked now for nearly 50 years, and I am just starting to feel like I am on to something.

Birding New Orleans

10,000 Birds

New Orleans. The Big Easy. NOLA. There’s no doubt that it is one of the most famous cities in the south, and I spent 24 hours there over the weekend! While I did not go NOLA to bird specifically, I always keep my eyes out. The Garden District. I arrived with my cousin and husband Saturday evening, checking into our room at the Crescent Palms and taking an Uber into the city.

Best Bird of the Weekend (Third of July 2016)

10,000 Birds

This weekend, millions of people, young and old alike, were driven to explore the most unlikely corners of the world in a relentless, unquenchable thirst to track down species they hadn’t ticked before. And some of the rest of us went birding! But whether you’re questing for Pokémon or birds, at least you got outside. My week on the shores of Lake Michigan resulted in the same birds I enjoy on the shores of Lake Ontario.

Why Would a Great Blue Heron Become a Vegetarian?

10,000 Birds

This past Saturday morning, 15 July, I was at Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge at 5:30 AM, heading out onto the East Pond in order to see shorebirds for high tide, which was going to occur at roughly 6:30 AM. With me were Seth Ausubel and Tom Preston and the three of us were eager to find something rare. As we worked our way up the east side of the pond Seth noticed that one of the young Great Blue Herons at the Raunt, a bit north of us still, had caught a Sand Lance and was having a hard time figuri

Interactions between birds and Man are not news to many of you. My mother’s favourite sight is a tractor being followed by gulls as it ploughs the autumn fields. She even asked me to draw her such a scene as a birthday present (you must understand that she is a very indulgent parent and was apparently delighted with this 8-year-old’s efforts).

Bilyuin Pool

10,000 Birds

On our camping trip into the more southern areas of Western Australia we spent two nights camping at Bilyuin Pool on the way south and again on the way back north. It was a very quiet area with plentiful bird-life and despite some rather inclement weather in June we really enjoyed the peacefulness of the bush there. Bilyuin Pool is at the site of the old Bilyuin Hotel, which is now in ruin and the pool is the remains of the Murchison River in the winter months.
