In contemplating a title for this blog post, I vacillated between historical and geological references. But I was set to virtually present about birding in T&T and suddenly the dearth of images and experience from the northwest corner of Trinidad became apparent. Northern Scrub Flycatcher.

I found myself on the shore of Lake Ontario on the most bitter day of this mild winter to observe over 1,700 maniacs take a Polar Bear Plunge. If you’ve blogged about your weekend experience, you should include a link in your comment.

They spend their time writing blogs about birds. They subscribe to newslists about birds, and read blogs about birds. Right now you’re reading a blog about birding, not even birds but birding, although to be fair I can’t really make any definite statements regarding how much you are enjoying the experience.

This would have allowed you to summarize your experience in sentences such as “A total of 98 boluses regurgitated by 52 chicks aged 1 day to 11 days after hatching form the sample and are shown to contain 323 food items.” This is ok as birds do not have teeth anyway). Chinese Pond Herons also grow on trees. That means that.

Birding that starts with the largest eagle of the continent certainly bears promises… The next stop is the town park in Opovo, north of Belgrade, where local bird expert Ceda Vuckovic reported one, locally rare, Short-eared Owl. I observe them, but feel I still lack experience to tell with certainty the SEO from LEO in flight.

Our campsite was gorgeous North Lake State Park in the Catskill Mountains of upstate New York, where the air is crisp, the forests are largely intact, and the bears force you to be careful about leaving food out when you go to sleep. Check out my mom’s blog post where she has a nice shot of my father and I looking at the wood-warblers.

Unfortunately, this morph is the dominant one at Fuzhou NFP”) that somehow survived the review process, possibly because the reviewer has had similar experiences. It bears an iconic name associated with insanity and betrayal, but also with time and seasonality. If three times is a charm what is four times?

William Blake, the 18th and 19th century English poet, painter and engraver, is most remembered for his two linked collections of poems, Songs of Innocence and Songs of Experience. Yonder stands a lonely tree, There I live and mourn for thee; Morning drinks my silent tear, And evening winds my sorrow bear.

The final piece of a puzzle comes from the official blog of the US Department of State, claiming the US are working “to make the Ross Sea an MPA [a marine protected area]. And I need you to vote for me and send me to Antarctica, so I could write wildlife blogs on Adélie Penguins and Leopard Seals. Now you know.

This blog is written by writer, photographer, and animal advocate Ingrid Taylar. It was Los Angeles, after all, where mileage has no bearing on time, but where time was precious for my little rescue on this crystal morning.

Informed literature bears out my experience that most birds are seen singly or in pairs. The resolution has been reduced for the blog, but in high-res, 2 or 3 dark filaments are visible. The nom de blog Redgannet was adopted to add an air of mystery and to make himself more attractive to women. Their function?

And sun bears. I enjoy these books tremendously, and I know other birders, some blogging here, who gobble them up. This is Gooddie’s web site, the host of his original travel blogs and a platform for pitta photographs, video, and paintings by fortunate birders and talented artists. And mosquitos. And leeches. And leeches.
