This is a poor photo I took of this pair’s nest back in 2009. So the persistent Osprey pair began to rebuild their nest … a nest that had survived years of harsh wind and weather… was now being laboriously reconstructed at great speed to begin this nesting season.

We had not observed a Powerful Owl since we were living in Portland, Victoria for a few months in 2009, so once the opportunity arose to go looking for one at the Royal Botanical Gardens in Sydney we took it! The Royal Botanical Gardens are a huge area to explore and easily accessed by public transport.

Cuero y Salado Wildlife Refuge, Honduras, March 2009 After our trip to the Cuero y Salado Wildlife Refuge was rained out on our first morning at The Lodge at Pico Bonito we rescheduled our visit for our second and last morning at the lodge. Not only that, but we had a train ride to look forward to! It turned out to be pretty cool.

Incidents include a hippo who died in transport from Denver and a Turkmenian markhor, a species of wild goat, hung itself at the zoo after becoming trapped by a rope. In April 2009, unseasonably cold weather froze two whopping crane eggs. And an incident in June 2009, while it didn’t involve death, certainly drew controversy.
