This week’s guest blog was written by Linda Hufford, who has been a wildlife rehabilitator specializing in raptors for over twenty years. But, he continued, some – but not all – of the researchers drove him nuts. Their attitude was “the rules don’t apply to me, I’m a researcher.”

This is also why you very rarely find a photo of a giraffe on top of one of these posts – the other reason of course being that a giraffe photo would be relatively pointless in a birding blog. If I was an ornithologist aiming for a grant, I would now definitely highlight the need for more research on this topic.

Our small group spent a weekend at the Ferret Research Camp, a cluster of trailers tucked in the middle of a black-tailed prairie dog town and the site, as the name implies, of a black-footed ferret reintroduction program.

After taking an ornithology course last year, he was hooked and spends most of his free time birding or reading birding blogs. This is truly a bird-lovers dream-destination.

Money will spill over to sponsor research projects, money to support nature centers, money to fund education. How will it help Birds?

After taking an ornithology course last year, he was hooked and spends most of his free time birding or reading birding blogs. I also knew I would have to leave the city center to do so.

Having come back to the blog in whatever form and persistency, the overarching subject of language in birding seemed to be a suitable and deserving theme since bird names were part of my original beat. When researching the origin of this saying, I figured it pertained to snares that were used to catch thrushes until better times prevailed.
