A Growing List of Hummingbirds

10,000 Birds

Most of us are already familiar with hummingbirds, whether in the flesh or in glorious, birdy dreams of lush tropical rainforests. They are one of the most famous families of birds, and for good reason. Buckets of energy crammed into an exceedingly tiny body, they can fly in every imaginable direction, change colour at will and consistently are treading the thin line between life and death.

Birding in the times of the coronavirus

10,000 Birds

Well, a somewhat obvious title for a blog post from China these days, particularly from somebody who pretends to have at least a basic grasp of world literature (and who has recently watched “Looking for Alaska” with its frequent allusions to another one of Marquez` works). Though Shanghai is not the center of the virus outbreak (that would be Wuhan, about 800 km from here), the impact of the disease is strong.

Starting the Year in Birding at Raptor Ridge, Costa Rica

10,000 Birds

No matter where you happen to be, you can’t really go wrong when beginning a new year of birding. Birds are everywhere and if you keep the mind open to appreciation, even the most common of familiar birds are incredible, beautiful creatures. That said, more birds are always better and ones infrequently seen even more so. By our good chance, Mary and I began our year of birding in Costa Rica at a place that combined both of these factors, a place with the promising name of “Raptor Rid

Birds in Winter: A Book Review, Written in Winter

10,000 Birds

Here are some of the things I learned reading Birds in Winter: . Birds who store food in advance of winter (corvids, t**s, and nuthatches) have a larger hippocampus (the brain structure that regulates memory) than non-storing birds do. American Avocet, Black-bellied and Semipalmated Plovers feed nocturnally during winter, the same number of hours as they feed during the day; smaller shorebirds feed more at night.

Best Bird of the Weekend (First of February 2020)

10,000 Birds

Another Super Bowl, another title won by a team named for something other than a bird. Birding is better when you keep sports out of it anyway! Birding has been terribly slow here in the Rochester area. I visited a place that has historically been auspicious for Cackling Goose but couldn’t even find a Canada there. If a pair of Mallards didn’t turn up, I would have gone completely birdless.

But is it safe?

10,000 Birds

Last week I went downhill to Paso Ancho, as I always do at some point each January. I go there to add all those Tierra Caliente (Hot Country) specialties to my year list. The site’s spectacular endemics never let me down: The beautiful Orange-breasted Bunting. This female Red-breasted Chat is showing what it thinks of me. Fortunately, at this time of year there are also a good number of high-quality migratory species: Least Flycatcher.

Collective Arts Brewing: Life in the Clouds

10,000 Birds

Anytime I’m shopping in a good local beer shop, I’m always sure to look for any offerings from Collective Arts Brewing. Not only does the Hamilton, Ontario brewery make some great beer, but – as the name suggests – Collective Arts is an enthusiastic supporter of creativity outside of the brewing arts – namely music and visual arts. In addition to hosting performances by local musicians and displaying works by up-and-coming artists, Collective Arts commissions one-of-a-kind, limited-edition artwo

Collaborative list – January 2020

10,000 Birds

A new year, a new list. Does anyone have any special plans for the new decade? If you are not already a lister, this could be the moment that you have been waiting for. A special point in history from which to make a start; the opening of a whole new decade. Bring it on! January is always a busy month with most birders keen to see themselves atop a listing.

Toora bird hide

10,000 Birds

Toora bird hide is located about three kilometres from the small town Toora in South Gippsland. The bird hide offers excellent views of Corner Inlet towards Wilson’s Promontory National Park. Despite Corner Inlet being a large bay it often has very rough seas and strong winds. Over recent weeks South Gippsland often missed out on the heatwaves that crossed the nation.

Bernd Heinrich’s new book “White Feathers” — a review

10,000 Birds

Two epigraphs open Bernd Heinrich’s White Feathers: The Nesting Lives of Swallows, each so redolent of his work as a whole, not just this new book, that they deserve to be quoted, even in a mere review, in full. The first is from the American naturalist William Beebe: “I was walking across our compound last month when a queen termite began building her miraculous city.
