Few suitable nesting trees still survive today When I visited Kerkini last month, the water was high as high as I have ever seen it, though the number of ducks and geese was low, as is usual. There were a few Mallard, and the odd Ferruginous Duck, along with Greylag Geese and Mute Swans.

It appeared that many of the birds that we had seen on earlier visits this year had abandoned the area due to the huge expanse of water. Glossy Ibis were by far the dominant species and we observed hundreds of them in flight as we crossed Roebuck Plains. It really can be too wet for ducks! Glossy Ibis in flight. Young Giant Frogs.

Basically, this species is so dimwitted, it doesn’t know how to survive. Because, Pink Pigeons are not capable of doing the tasks required to create and bring up children of the species. Don’t these birds care about propagating their species? They have a hard enough time with Canada Geese. I know, that’s harsh.

I’m going to start with a specific example: species accounts for Common Tern and Arctic Tern. How have these species accounts changed from The Sibley Guide to Birds , published in 2000 (heretofore called Sibley One) to The Sibley Guide to Birds, Second Edition , published in March 2014 (and heretofore called Sibley Two).
