10,000 Birds

JANUARY 12, 2024

In 2023 I attempted to keep a year list of mammal encounters: the list barely exceeded 20 species, while it became complicated by seeing bats and voles that I was unable to name specifically. A Greek Wild Cat , photographed near Lake Kerkini I’ve had a few encounters with wild cats, too, in both France and Greece.

The forest grows on the new lakeshore and it, too, is a mere 15 years old, but already provides an important corridor for large mammals such as Roe Deer and even Brown Bears , which sometimes come down to feed on beans. The lake water level dropped 10 metres in only 15 years and I was now driving along the old lakeshore. Other taxa.

Sucked In By Cat Commercialism. When you first bring home your new kitten or cat, you go to the pet store for the first time and can’t believe what you are seeing. Little cat condos! Rolling balls that have bells, feathers, catnip and everything but the cat itself! Your cats will get just as much (or more!)
