10,000 Birds

FEBRUARY 15, 2018

Yours truly counting birds in the Pastures of Great Bustard from the Russian made UAZ 4×4 in February 2008. In breeding season grazing cattle may walk through the nest, breaking the eggs, while wild and domestic pigs may eat both eggs and chicks. What treats do they face? What is the latest outcome of all this?

The author, conservation biologist Caroline Fox, is observing the albatross’s shadow to the side of the boat. Fox notes the albatross in her “soaking-wet notebook” and watches it circle and fly back into the masking glare. Fox does an excellent job balancing these three elements, keeping the emphasis on the birds.
