10,000 Birds

A world without bird and/or mammal, fish and reptile rehabilitators would be a very sad one. My pause for thought came when I found a Stygian Owl in a city park in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The questions that are raised with a rehab bird are things like; without human help, would the bird have lived? Would it be here in a city park?

Although 99% is privately owned, the Pantanal (swamp in Spanish) was my favorite place in Brazil. Although there are no endemic birds in this area of Brazil, there are soooo many birds (650 residents) and lots of them are restricted range birds. It is an eye opener which every birder must see before it its gone.

On June 12th, FIFA’s Football World Cup will kick off in Brazil, with the home side hosting Croatia for the opening match in Sao Paulo. Anticipation is building as the date approaches and football fans will soon be arriving in the city to pay homage at the birthplace of Brazil’s fabulous version of the beautiful game.
