10,000 Birds

What exactly is our motivation, what drives us to admire, enjoy, defend and educate ourselves about these fine feathered beauties? I have no doubt that every one of us, at least to some extent, have a different story. Was there a parent, friend or family member that took you out to look at birds for the first time? Is there in fact a single person, or was it the proverbial “village” that sparked that interest?

On our first full day in Puerto Rico (Sunday, 15 January), Mike and I decided to start in the east of the island and work our way west. After a short night’s sleep at our hotel just outside of Caguas we took the half-hour drive to Humacao and arrived shortly after dawn. Though the preserve doesn’t officially open until later in the morning you can access it before opening hours by walking the path on the other side of the canal from the entrance.

Mid-January offers some pretty bland birding in many parts of the Northern Hemisphere, or at least little you can’t see during the month before or after. Is that why millions of people seemed to crowd their nearest urban center on Saturday? Guess January birding really is boring… During such an eventful weekend, I observed nothing more interesting than a House Finch — check out more images from Corey’s gallery –which assumes some air of respectability for being my f

Just as time only moves forwards, so do new bird lists. Once the December 31st clock strikes midnight, I can’t help but archive the old one and start another for a new year. Whether one happens to be obsessive or not, it’s a great excuse to make and meet birding goals, and bird on the sly no matter where you are or what you may be up to.

“On Wednesday morning, activists from Greenpeace unfurled a massive yellow and orange banner with the word ‘Resist’ on a tall crane behind the White House,” read the NPR story. And resistance to this anti-environmental agenda is essential if we want to keep our country, and our planet, safe for future generations. Donald Trump has put forth an anti-environmental group of advisors and cabinet nominees and this very thin-skinned president is taking no time in attacking our

Believe it or not, we are already nearly one-twelfth through his crazy year. Do you have a Best Bird of the Month yet? If not, use this weekend to find one! I’m working through the weekend but really need to find a way to see something fancy around here. Corey, who can typically find fancy birds in the NYC area, may just be jetting off again in search of international avifauna.

We have been receiving a lot of rain in the Kimberley in the North-west of Western Australia so far this year, which is traditionally our Wet Season and this will bring ideal conditions for a lot of birds. The ephemeral lakes are finally full once again and it will make for excellent birding during our Dry Season in the middle of the year. So far the snipe species have eluded us this year, although we did observe Swinhoe’s Snipe on Christmas Day last year at the Poo Ponds , so we do know t
