Joseph Chiera is a Masters student in Animal Behavior and Conservation at Hunter College in NYC and a “somewhat newbie” to birding. And, as appears to be the case in most cities in Finland, wildlife and nature is only steps away! One of many signs in the park aimed at educating about wildlife. White Wagtail in Helsinki.

Growing up in central Oregon, allowed me to experience such a diverse amount of habitat, and the wildlife that resides there. Pronghorn Antelope populations once exceeded 30 million animals, but by the turn of the century, was down to just a few small bands. A White-crowned Sparrow is always a beautiful subject!

So I packed my binoculars thinking that, even if the trip wouldn’t be as bird-rich as my last trip to the Sunshine State (for the mighty, mighty Space Coast Birding & Wildlife Festival ), at least a few crackers would wing my way. If you’re looking for birds, try Disney’s Animal Kingdom.

Even people with no other interest in wildlife, who couldn’t tell a sparrow from an ostrich (or even a dolphin from a fish) love dolphins. It may be part of the reason I find them unnerving, it is only the smart creatures that can do actual bad things, instead of just wild animal things. And dolphins can do bad things.

Fish and Wildlife Service tells states when they may propose a hunting season on cranes, and has ultimate jurisdiction over whether the states get their seasons. So we can squawk at the state wildlife departments all we want, but the USFWS has the final say. Now, it’s time to go to the top. Street, N.W. Mail Stop 7060 Washington, D.C.

of Fish and Wildlife Commissioner Jon Gassett has indicated that if enough people write in protest, the proposed hunting season–due to start this December– will be reconsidered. Hunting is on a steady downturn, and nonconsumptive wildlife pursuits are on a tremendous upswing. We can fight them back in Kentucky, too.

I was looking out a car window the other day and noticed that of all the wildlife most of it was bird. But it happened at that moment that a lot of what I was looking at was avian in nature: a few crows, some sparrows, blackbirds, and other run of the mill inner-ring suburb fliers and flitterers.

Ocassional robins, sparrows, crows. I'm not out in the country either (despite the wildlife.) Birds seem to be mostly some kind of common looking grayish speckled yard birds that I don't know what they are. Maybe some kind of grackle? Idk, generic store brand bird lol.

They are all wonderful people and they are all animal lovers. But I’ve learned we love animals in very different ways. But I don’t agree with the supplemental feeding that happens with feral cats–if you’re gonna call them wildlife, treat them as such. If one bird is gone, there’s always another.
