I only taxonomy from phylum to family, since i feel like there wouldnt be much reason to include genus, since a lot of genuses only have a couple of species and since you should be able to guess the animal by knowing the family and where it lives, size etc.

Every time I go to the Space Coast Birding and Wildlife Festival I make sure to go out of my way to spend some time with Snail Kites. The birds interacted in the air several times and watching their behavior with each other and while they were hunting was educational and enjoyable. Adult birds have an orange base to the bill.)

I am a birder, and I love birds. I don’t mind that they share the world with other creatures, and I have even developed an appreciation for mammals, reptiles and amphibians – but only so long as watching them doesn’t collide with my finding birds.

While New Zealand is famous for its endemic oddities, once upon a time New Zealand also had many birds from groups and families that are no longer found here. There were once two species of goose, a merganser, and a pair of raven species. Right from the beginning the species was something of a mystery. And eagles.

This special place in a birder’s heart or on a list of best birds of the year certainly pertains not only to their extravagant lifestyle but also to the fact that most birders – particularly visiting birders – often struggle with finding them. Crazy, I know. And you know what? A silly name from a German prespective.

My initial reaction was, “Really, dude, of all the birds that you’re allowed to have in Wisconsin, you choose the bird that is going to make birders who don’t understand falconry angry?” They’re not known to be the easiest birds to work with , especially when the temperatures are high. Go home now!”

When people think of birds and their sex lives…most of us don’t know much, although it’s not for a lack of interest. Within the bird world, so many different strategies and methods of mating and reproduction have evolved, it simply boggles the mind. This is just a small slice of how birds get it done.

In trying to find further evidence of the warbler’s behaviour and the sapsucker’s lifestyle, I found numerous mentions of Rufous Hummingbirds and “other species” coming to feed from sap wells. My first internet search was an attempt to sex the bird. Does he vigorously defend his food source?

In many ways, birding Wawushan is a nightmare for a solitary and crowd-hating birder like me. An unnamed bird guide called them “avoidless tourists”, which sums it up rather nicely. So, all this makes birding this place an occasionally less than pleasant experience. Never fails to startle them.

I really enjoyed the challenge of listing my birds during the last year and although we have kept lists in the past we have never noted the first date each year that we see a bird, so that was a very interesting exercise. Sometimes we were successful and sometimes we weren’t, but you never have a bad day birding!
