Back Yard Birds

10,000 Birds

One of the things that I have always considered a positive about living on a sailboat, besides the obvious, is the complete lack of yard work that is required. No lawn to mow, no shrubs or trees to tend to. The down side is that I also don’t get to enjoy the kinds of birds that would be found in a typical backyard. Over the last weekend, my wife and I made a whirl-wind trip from Mexico, up to the Pacific Northwest, the Seattle area, where we stayed with the in-laws.

In other locations Mangrove Cuckoos can be abundant and not at all secretive.

Healthy Birds, Healthy Rainforest: Lessons from the Amazon

10,000 Birds

A few years back, Audubon magazine published a thoughtful article and series of musings (including those of our very own Corey Finger) on the subject of why birds matter. Of course, if you’re reading this, then birds clearly matter to you, for any one of a number of reasons. But not everyone sees things through such an avian-positive lens, and hence science often has to make the case for birds’ intrinsic worth.
