Lake Kerkini National Park in the north of Greece is the very best birding area in the Balkan Peninsula and definitely among the top ten hotspots of Europe. However, during a storm the chains that kept it anchored broke off and the raft is now stranded on the shore, accessible to stray dogs and not used for breeding.

And around here, it definitely feels like summer! Corey, of course, maintains an unswerving commitment to birding and will likely comb the coast of the NYC archipelago for stray shorebirds and vagrant albatrosses. At last, real summer settles in over the Northern Hemisphere. A full week of phenomenal weekend demands tremendous focus!

From Terry Tempest William’s 1992 bombshell Refuge to Cheryl Strayed’s 2012 blockbuster Wild (now a major-ish motion picture!) The Home Place is definitely solid, and it also sparkles. the hits keep coming. And sure, some stinkers make it out there between the covers. Drew Lanham is a black man.

She came from another shelter as a stray, had been abused, was very skinny, and she was extremely shy and afraid of everyone. When I told them Angel’s name, they said it was definitely the perfect name for her. My name is Jan. On May 5, 2010, I adopted a two-year-old poodle/terrier mix from our local shelter, Animal Allies.

Poor countries with lots of trash on the streets and no spay/neuter clinics definitely have more street dogs. While we call them “strays,” implying they just absent-mindedly wandered away from home, most of them are what the rest of the world calls “street” dogs (and cats). Millions of American street dogs (and cats!)

The honest answer is a very definite…maybe. It really depends on where the strays and vagrants show up in the second half of the year. But even after all that, you’d still be nearly 25 species shy of the record, and the difference has to come from chasing strays and vagrants when and where they show up.

It seems different enough from Indigo-capped Hummingbird to be a stray of that Colombian endemic, and a good hybrid hypothesis has been elusive. Searches haven’t turned up any suspect Alfaro’s either but maybe we just need to look more, or compare its DNA with other, known hummingbird species.
