Back in June, I wrote about the birds of the Macaronesian islands – Azores, Madeira, the Canaries and Cape Verde. Today I’m going to zoom into the desert islands in the east of the Canaries archipelago – Fuerteventura and Lanzarote. These islands lie close to the western edge of the continental Sahara Desert.

The Nymphenburg Park in Munich is known among birders and non-birders alike for Tawny Owls that often roost very close to the paths leading through the green spaces. You often see people on walks stopping under a few specific trees and peering into the foliage to check if the familiar birds are back at their daytime roosts.

It started with an email regarding another birder’s blog. Then, the blogger in Panama mentioned that he was going to be in Toronto in early October. The blogger in Toronto asked if he would like to spend a day birding together. That is how Fitzroy and Leslie became possibly the first writers in recent times from 10000 Birds to meet up.

A detective story: A few White-tailed Eagles live in the Netherlands. The Netherlands White-tailed Eagle Working Group watches out for them, partly via transmitters. At one point, a White-tailed Eagle does not change its position anymore, obviously an alarming sign, and subsequently is found dead in a field. It had fallen forward onto a dead coot.

Because I lived in South Africa for most of my youth, I have seen a large portion of the huge variety of species in this amazing country. Of these, some have become particular favourites over the years, some of which I list here in no particular order – it was already hard enough to get down to ten species in the first place (my initial title was “10 favourite species”…).

I was a week into my trip to the Peloponnese, in south-west Greece, and my bird list had stagnated on 40 species. So one day, in search of new birds, I drove from my base at Agios Nickolas, south of Kalamata, to the Gialova Lagoon, on the west coast.

When you ask someone what they know about Brazil, you will likely hear answers about the world-famous Rio de Janeiro Carnival, the vast Amazon River, or even Iguazu Falls along the border with Paraguay and Argentina. Brazil ranks fifth largest country by area, occupying about half of South America. There is an attraction that could quickly draw anyone for a visit.

By the time I post this, I will be in Dublin, Ireland. This will be the beginning of a work trip to Spain and Morocco. But we always try to find somewhere new and interesting for the first few days of such trips, while we adjust to new time zones. This year’s choice was Dublin. We have been making these trips annually for three years now.

Cat Tien National Park is a protected area approximately 150 kilometers north of Ho Chi Minh City, and on weekends, it seems to be quite an attraction for young upper-middle-class Vietnamese. The young ladies among them seem to be quite keen to practice their English on Western foreigners carrying heavy camera equipment, which is kind of flattering and makes for an enjoyable experience.

Little Egrets are a species that can lead to disappointment among birders. Some non-birding friends (or just passers-by trying to help a bird photographer) may excitedly tell you that somewhere, there are “many birds” It then turns out that all of them are Little Egrets – impressive birds for non-birders, but hardly worth a glance once you start spending too much time looking for birds.

So everyone knows there are animals that are deemed untamable and this is true by science that are animals that are untamable like zebras and crocodiles however does that mean you can’t at least have a mutual understanding with these kinds of animals?

I have better peace of mind since I just bought an air-tag and a collar for my dog so when it gets lost I can track it, there are also GPS dog collars too. IF you deal with anybody saying they have your pet get a cop off the street and ask them if they can follow you to pic up your dog and explain your situation. Do this in any other circumstances even if they seem nice which in this case there are alot of alarms going off in my head.

They let an attack dog loose on me and I have to run away and across a small little river. Is it better to swim to the other side or try to fend off the dog in the water while we're both swimming?

Hey everyone! I recently completed a metal sculpture of a giraffe, born on October 16, 2024. It weighs 4.5 pounds and measures 15.5" tall, 10.5" long, and 4.5" wide. Crafted from unfinished 16 gauge hot rolled metal, it has a dark natural look. I used a Bodor i7 fiber laser cutter for precision and a Toptek fiber laser welder to fuse the pieces together without filler.

So one of the mollies in my lab had babies. Early on I seperated 3 for use with an ecology experiment. The 18 mollies in the large tank are almost full size, whereas the mollies in the column have not grown at all. The diet is as identical as I can make it. A student asked, and I dont know: Does anyone know what stimuli in the environment specifically changes the growth rate with respect to habitat size?

Hello, I woke up to my hamster dead. Since I don't have much for spending right now, I took time to retrieve a bunch of magnesium from a kit I had and tested the temperature. My laser thermometer gave a reading of 5,000°F since that was the thermometer's max and I am not sure how hot magnesium actually gets. Is at least 5,000 degrees F hot enough to creamate?
