A Great Day Out West – Bobcats, Birds and Boardwalks

10,000 Birds

“Out West” to most Floridians might mean California or Arizona or might even refer to the Gulf Coast of Florida. But to us locals from the El Dub (Lake Worth, FL) it refers to anywhere east of the Everglades and west of Congress Avenue. And this is where magic happens from time to time. And the magic factories are two neighbors, Green Cay Wetlands and Wakodahatchee Wetlands.

Owls, the debait

10,000 Birds

I love great bird photography, I truly do. Photos that capture great behaviour, and the incredible beauty of birds. Great photographs also inspire me to try and do better with my own photographs. Inspire me to try a little harder to get that composition just right, to get that jaw-dropping moment. Should I worry about how those photos were obtained?

Best Bird of the Weekend (Last of January 2013)

10,000 Birds

Winter in the temperate portions of the Nearctic ecozone might be cold, but fine birds choose to visit no matter what the weather. I’ve always equated winter with big predatory birds like Snowy Owls and Rough-legged Hawks. But on second thought, smaller birds like Horned Larks and Lapland Longspurs spring to mind. And on third thought are those winsome winter waterfowl and exciting alcids… so what avifauna do you equate with winter in your part of the world?

The Too-Friendly Scrub Jays of Cruickshank Sanctuary

10,000 Birds

There are many wonderful things to see at the Space Coast Birding and Wildlife Festival , but the Florida Scrub-Jay is as close to a “must see bird” as you’re likely to find down here. Fortunately for attendees, there are around 60 family groups of the charismatic and affable birds scattered throughout the Brevard County area, and many of the field trips at the festival run across them at various times.

Where Are You Birding This First Weekend of February 2013

10,000 Birds

Fandom is a funny thing, isn’t it? We’re headed towards Super Bowl Sunday, when the most popular sporting event in the Western Hemisphere plays out annually. Consequently, football fandom, which is always ardent, has reached a fever pitch. One (or at least this one) wonders why unmitigated obsession with some activities is seen as far more normal or acceptable than a fanatical focus on others.

Northern Lapwings in New Jersey – A Before Work Caper

10,000 Birds

Back on 14 January Larry and Shari Zirlin were fortunate enough to come across an amazing three Northern Lapwings in a field in New Egypt, New Jersey, while out looking for a pair of reported Sandhill Cranes. I had been wishing I could get to see them but between family and job it just wasn’t working out for me to make the 90-minute ride to New Egypt.

I and the Bird: What is a Raven?

10,000 Birds

Knowledgeable nature lovers might be wondering why everyone in the Western world seems to be talking about the corvids we’ve always known were the coolest around. But when the Baltimore Ravens are set to play in Super Bowl XLVII, suddenly everyone loves ravens. Well, around here, we’ve always been keen on Corvus corax and his kin, so we invited like-minded (small “r”) ravens fans to explore the many ways of looking at this black bird.

Spinifex Pigeons in Western Australia

10,000 Birds

In Western Australia we have two races of the Spinifex Pigeon Geophaps plumifera , but neither are found in Broome. One race lives to the north- Geophaps plumifera plumifera and the other race lives to the south- Geophaps plumifera ferrugines. They both live in rocky areas and amongst what is traditionally called Spinifex grass. The grass grows in large dense clumps and is Triodia, a perennial grass, which has sharp pointed leaves that can easily enter your skin causing irritation and infection.

24 Hours in Bangkok, Bang Poo and Muang Boran

10,000 Birds

This piece follows on from Part One. After a successful morning’s birding and a very fine lunch, Peter and I made our way to our next site, Bang Poo. The site is a small on the coastal edge of Bangkok proper, a park and pier sicking out of mangroves and wetlands. It’s kind of an odd spot, a mix of protected wetland and mangroves mixed with some manicured lawns and parking.
