It feels good to start a post with some truly attractive birds – such as two species of broadbills. If you like cute birds, you will probably like the Black-and-yellow Broadbill. Homework assignment: Is the bird in this video a male or a female? Maybe the birds I saw were not real. You can see why here.

The artwork of “Europe’s Birds” is dazzling, the text condensed and comprehensive, and the layout and design are without peer.

I’m headed to Singapore in a week with stops in Japan and I hope Malaysia. If you live in any of those places, I’d love to go birding with you! Of course, everything required to get away for a week has kept me extremely busy, so I don’t even have a best bird for this weekend. His Best Bird of the Weekend?
