Truth be told, I picked up this week’s beer long before we embarked on this surreal “three-hour tour” we are now collectively enduring. Collective Arts: Stranger than Fiction. The post Collective Arts: Stranger than Fiction appeared first on 10,000 Birds. Good birding and happy drinking — and be well, everyone.

Anytime I’m shopping in a good local beer shop, I’m always sure to look for any offerings from Collective Arts Brewing. Not only does the Hamilton, Ontario brewery make some great beer, but – as the name suggests – Collective Arts is an enthusiastic supporter of creativity outside of the brewing arts – namely music and visual arts.

What wasn’t publicised at the time, but the scientist later both admitted and owned, is that the kingfisher was then killed and collected for scientific reasons. I’m not going to rehash the arguments for scientific collecting here. The large room the collection was held in was a profoundly weird place. Bush Wrens.

They vary in construction and there is also a wide variation in the items that they collect. Traditionally the Great Bowerbirds collect mostly white and green items, but this varies by location. Around the township of Broome the Great Bowerbirds collect both white and green items , which are both natural and man-made.

To quote from their Facebook post: It is my sad duty to report to you that the ULM administration has decided to divest the research collections in the Museum of Natural History.

The Moustached Kingfisher was known by only three samples– one female “collected” in the 1920’s, the other two females “collected” in the 1950’s, according to an Audubon Magazine article. The justification was ridiculously laughable: in order to further study the species. Can a dead bird educate the researcher on its song?

After my post about collecting two weeks ago I received a bit of feedback, some positive, some negative, and I’ve been mulling it over with the intention of writing about some of the issues that could be considered the root cause of the disagreement. You see, the bird was collected for scientific study.

A final thought: whether you think collective nouns are fascinating or idiotic , the more fundamental question is, why do they exist at all or, rather, how did they come to be? In short, the Birder Murders are getting better and better as they come off the presses, with A Shimmer of Hummingbirds the most dazzling of all — so far.

The RSPCA collected these signatures leading up to the the 7th World Congress on Alternatives & Animal Use in the Life Sciences in Rome. How many of them actually see these animals in the labs? That's why so many people don't want to talk about these issues. It upsets them. But their silence and cluelessness is essentially their consent.

Observers have noted these colorful crows flying up to 18km to and fro from an old oakwood when collecting acorns. They are normally shy and relatively secretive woodland birds, but at this time of the year when they are in full acorn-collecting mode, they become much bolder and more conspicuous. It’s a different matter in the spring.

The concrete ramp collects seaweed as the tide pushes back and forth. In this part (sorry Corey) all those tundran breeders seem to have followed the path most flown. This individual was seen from the ferry jetty on the estuary of the River Thames in the UK. The seaweed, in its turn attracts insects and thus birds.

To prove the point the above photo shows a flock of Dusky Woodswallows in a mass which is, I believe, a strategy to avoid the cold.
