Such meditative birding is, for me, the heart of the experience. Unlike what you may have read, real rivers bear us ceaselessly into the future. There was plenty of time to observe the scores of Spotted Sandpipers that seemed to be everywhere along the bank, peeping and flitting and bobbing in a post-breeding season riot of abundance.

The Chiffchaff Phylloscopus collybita is an abundant species with an impressive global range that stretches from the West of Europe across Siberia to Russia’s far East, just falling short of reaching the Bering Straits by a laughable 800 kilometres, a fact one individual apparently found too awkward to bear.

Greeney, also part of the Helm Identification series, it focuses on two avian families, combining the information necessary for identification with the latest research on taxonomy and behavior, particularly breeding behavior, and the latest conservation news and status. I love reading the descriptions of these birds’ breeding behavior.

The Mexican Duck, as its name suggests, is native to Mexico and parts of the southwestern United States, and unlike the Mallard, the Mexican Duck does not have a showy male breeding plumage; both sexes are brown throughout the year. What do you think?

This is the story of Fox’s experiences on board the Achiever, the research vessel of the Raincoast Conservation Foundation. Though the coast of British Columbia, a part of the Great Bear Rainforest, was rich in both, it was appallingly deficient in scientific data. Northern Fulmar, image courtesy of Peter Hodum.

Informed literature bears out my experience that most birds are seen singly or in pairs. Outside of the breeding season a few birds may join together in a loose flock if the feeding is good. The former British colony’s Z.c. melli strain is one of as many as 12 races and shows a lighter face than many of the others.

While Haviken foregoes these latter production methods, it does rely on the singular contributions of Brettanomyces lambicus , a member of a family of wild yeasts (colloquially known as “Brett”) known for producing distinctly funky flavors in several traditional Belgian styles, and more recently, a new breed of American “wild” ales.

But in many cases, Frederick found that the claims of these vaunted but unthinking sources stood in contrast with his own experiences as both a falconer and keen observer of birds. and also theorized that birds breed in the spring as the warmth of summer offers the best conditions for the rearing of offspring.

Tropical Cyclone Joyce dumped 100mm of rain in Perth as it travelled south as a rain-bearing depression and the whole family had the experience of torrential rain in Western Australia. A family of Buff-banded Rails escaped into the vegetation ahead of us and they must have arrived with the first of the rains to breed.
