The second trip was in the rain and it killed my camera but fortunately not the memory card as the image above shows. Here’s hoping that 2020 is even close to as good a birding year as 2019 has been. The post My Ten Best Birds of 2019 appeared first on 10,000 Birds. Losing the camera was worth it. Happy New Year!

This northern fox really does look red, unlike the pale, sandy-coloured animals I saw in Georgia in 2019 ( below ). They will also kill any water birds they can capture, from Kingfishers to Mallard. The Finnish fox shown here was photographed late on an October afternoon, north of the Arctic Circle.

The only wildcat I found was illegally killed by hunters during closed season. Photographed within Beljarica: five White-tailed Eagles by Snezana Panjkovic. I barely started when some sulphur (a.k.a. clouded yellow) butterfly and one Brambling greeted me. Covering it in concrete would make the floodwave higher, faster and stronger.

Eastern red bats, for only one example, may actually be attracted to wind turbines; and unlike birds, they are often killed by “barotrauma” – their inner organs explode from the drop in air pressure as the blade sweeps past.).
