10,000 Birds

OCTOBER 23, 2023

Sukau birding essentially means staying in a more-or-less comfortable lodge on the banks of the Kinatabagan river, and taking boat tours on more-or-less rickety boats on the river. So, just photos of the birds themselves. Why that makes Mr. Graydon worthy of having a bird species named after him is a mystery to me.

10,000 Birds

JANUARY 1, 2013

My spark bird was the Red-tailed Hawk that lives next to Central Park, the one named Pale Male I’ve always been a little embarrassed about this. There have been three books written about Pale Male and 2 movies made about him, and saying that he was the bird that sparked my birding obsession makes me feel like I am living out an urban cliché.

Animal Ethics

SEPTEMBER 7, 2009

That's because those who read Animal Ethics with regularity know that there are many compelling reasons to adopt a vegetarian lifestyle. These birds are some of the most abused animals in agriculture. Why not try it for yourself for 21 days?
