Our favorite birds of prey fly south. “Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird. I would fly about the earth. seeking the successive autumns.” (George Eliot). Appearing now (or very soon) at a Flyway near you – fall raptor migration! Thanks to HawkCount.org for sharing tallies from over 300 North American (and Central American) sites.

If you like birds on posts, if seeing “little brown jobs” posing nicely in the distance as you drive or walk along a dirt road only to have it fly away as you approach makes you deliriously happy, then North Dakota is the place for you. I love sparrows, so seeing a feather-worn Vesper Sparrow this past July filled my heart with joy. I was on New Jersey Audubon’s Grand North Dakota birding tour this past July, driving along dirt roads through the prairies of western North Dakota

I haven’t had much time to bird. After looking for different species every day for the first six months of the year, lately I can’t manage to actively search for any kind of bird unless I’m traveling. The usual excuses apply: I’ve been sick, tired, busy with work, etc., but it still sucks. Since my hour or so of free time every night is usually relegated to my living room with night falling outside, any birding I do has to be compatible with the couch.

We in the United States are looking at another long weekend at a terrific time of year to get an extra day of leisure. Argue all you wish about the Great Age of Exploration and exploitation of indigenous peoples. I’ll refrain from getting political for once and just go look at birds! I’m heading down to rural Pennsylvania this weekend to see what migrants might be turning up on the old farm.

September has drawn to a close, but the birding excitement may just be getting started, depending on where you live. Migratory season can last a while, so pace yourselves! I finally made it to one of my favorite patches, but all I found were swarms of agitated chipmunks. They must have chased the birds away! Fortunately, two White-throated Sparrows proved courageous enough to withstand the chipmunk horde.

Little Woodswallows- Artamus minor are the smallest of the Woodswallows at only 12-14cm and prefer areas where there are cliff faces and rugged terrain. They can be found close to Broome around the Willie Creek area and at the nearby ephemeral lakes, though, despite the lack of cliffs. One of the easiest places to find Little Woodswallows in the Kimberley which is accessible by bitumen is Geikie Gorge close to the town of Fitzroy Crossing.

Last week we were in the Teton Valley, getting ready to head over to Wyoming, and Yellowstone National Park. Things were getting much colder, and the threat of snowfall was looming. Snow is not something I want to deal with when pulling a 30 foot 5th wheel, so we were planning to make like our many feathered friends, and migrate south to much warmer climes!

It’s no secret that beer and wine share a common heritage that dates back to the earliest days of human civilization. Both drinks are produced through the fermentation of grape and grain, respectively – two of the world’s oldest crops – but it’s the winemaker who has more often maintained a more intimate relationship with the agricultural landscape over the centuries.

This coming Saturday we will be able to participate in the first October Global Big Day! Every year for the last four years Global Big Day has set new heights for a single day of birding. This massively international collaborative birding event has been so great Cornell Lab wants to have another worldwide eBird Big Day in October. Why October? Because spring is rejuvenating the southern hemisphere and the northern reaches of the world are in the midst of migration.
