Trinidad’s Toughest Triad

10,000 Birds

Continuing here with the series on threes within the avian landscape of Trinidad and Tobago (in case you missed it, T&T has three each of trogons , antshrikes , spinetails , manakins , hermits , honeycreepers , and resident warblers ) we arrive at one of the more difficult species triads to encounter. Like the three resident warblers in T&T, the three species of bitterns recorded for T&T are only found on the larger island of Trinidad.

Birding Nanhui, Shanghai in November 2021

10,000 Birds

Somehow, it seems that most birders regularly visiting Nanhui feel that 2021 was a bit of a disappointing year. Not too many highlights, not too many species … hard to say whether this is just the usual nostalgia for a better but probably nonexistent past or a real phenomenon. The latter is possible, as the undisturbed areas of Nanhui keep shrinking, leaving less and less space for birds.

Peterson Field Guide to North American Bird Nests: A Field Guide Review

10,000 Birds

Once upon a time, bird field guides included nests. This may have been partly a leftover from the Victorian fascination with egg collecting (the infamous passion known as oology), but probably more from people’s burgeoning interest in the nests and eggs found in their gardens and fields, gateway artifacts to a newer hobby called birdwatching. Florence Merriam Bailey wrote about nests with both passion and scientific precision in Birds Through an Opera Glass, published in 1889 (she spends

Alto del Carmen Pisco Reservado

10,000 Birds

Last week’s excellent 10,000 Birds holiday gift guide compiled by Mark made me realize that we’ve gone through nearly all of 2021 without reviewing a single distilled spirit here at Birds and Booze. We’ve had plenty of beer and wine this year, but no liquor. Well, with half a month to go before 2022, we’re not about to dip on spirits for the year if I can help it.

Where the Sparrows Are

10,000 Birds

Like many birders, I regularly submit short lists of birds seen at my place of employment. But I also sometimes go there, specifically to bird, for hours. That is because the area around the church that we pastor is my very best site for birds that like open grasslands, as opposed to the wooded hillsides that are so common around Morelia. Specifically, the area surrounding our church is my best place to see sparrows, both residents and our (much more common) winter migratory sparrows.

Collaborative list November – 2021

10,000 Birds

I have been humming the Dwarves’ theme from Sleeping Beauty all month. Can’t think why. …we bird, bird, bird, bird, bird, bird, bird in the marsh the whole day thru. …in the sky (in the sky), in the sky (in the sky), where a million waders… Fly… If only that were the case. My birding list for November totals 15 species.

Pheasant Coucal-the sound of summer!

10,000 Birds

It is now summer here in Australia and there is hope of rain in the next few weeks here in Broome. It has been more than eight months now since we had rain and the land is desperate for rainfall. We are all desperate for a change, because you can actually get a bit bored of constant blue skies! We look forward to the lightning shows and the distant teasing rumbling and eventually the rain pours down and nature rejoices!
