July morning in the Balkans, early enough to create an illusion of a cool morning, umm, almost. Wheat fields around me were harvested in the previous days. In the short, golden-brown stubble, one Brown Hare is hopping. Just for fun, it seems – joie de vivre? I am driving down the dirt track in the Carska Bara Ramsar site (Serbia) and a cloud of dust closely follows me, like a rider on a pale horse.

Forty years ago, the suggestion that nonhuman animals have moral rights—indeed, many of the same rights as human beings—would have been met with incredulous stares, if not outright ridicule. Fast forward to the present. A recent Gallup poll (conducted May 6-10, 2015) found that 32% of Americans believe that "animals deserve the exact same rights as people to be free from harm and exploitation," while only 3% of Americans feel that animals don't need much protection from harm and exploitation "si

New York City in July provides limited opportunities for birders to see birds. The often oppressive heat and humidity means that most birds have quieted down shortly after sunrise, shorebirds haven’t really started to move in large numbers yet, and mosquitoes and biting flies can make visiting coastal saltmarshes and other wet habitats more of an ordeal than an outing.

July is almost over, which means summer is almost over, right? Of course not, but those of us who live for the warmest months feel these moments slipping away as soon as they begin. On the bright side, birds will be back on the move once summer ends! I’ll be enjoying gorgeous weather here in Western New York this weekend, while Corey wings his way to serious tropical birding in Honduras.

A nasty little virus and a failure of my internet at home has left me at another deadline with nothing to show for myself. Rather than incur the wrath of Corey and face the shame of a no-show, I thought I’d quickly share some images I got of a striking African bird, the Southern Pied Babbler. Southern Pied Babbler ( Turdoides bicolor ). While there as some very attractive members of the family (or families, scientists can’t make up their minds) in Asia, in Africa the babblers tend to

If you’re a regular reader of 10,000 Birds, you may remember a remarkable video posted some months back of a Great Horned Owl swimming in Lake Michigan. The amiable nature photographer who preserved this special moment was Steve Spitzer, well known in Chicago’s birding community for taking spectacular pictures of even the most common birds. (Anyone who has the ability to make Ring-billed Gulls gorgeous and fascinating has a considerable talent.).

It is truly getting into the dog days of summer here in the northeastern United States. Temperatures in the nineties (Fahrenheit – global warming hasn’t gotten that bad yet!), humidity so thick you can practically swim through the air, and the sweet stench of urine in the New York City subway all combine to make life miserable. To beat the heat I birded the coast on Sunday morning and was rewarded with expected birds of shore and sea.

The airline business is a competitive and cut-throat arena in which to operate. Emphasis is placed on cost and more importantly, the reduction thereof. Helmeted Guineafowl. Thus a younger, leaner (and if I am brutally honest, prettier and better able to carry off “The Look”) fleet of crew have been recruited to bolster the established flight attendants who carry the weight of experience and a few extra pounds besides from their indulgent lifestyle.

Brown Thrashers , large, rust-colored songbirds, were so popular in Georgia that they became the namesake of their NHL hockey team, the “Atlanta Thrashers!” It comes as no surprise then that the governor proclaimed the Brown Thrasher the state bird in 1953 , and the legislature followed suit in 1970. The team has since been moved to Canada, but the state bird remains a celebrated symbol.

I learned a new word today: Diel. I’m a little embarrassed that I didn’t already know that. I will now use the word in a sentence. Diel changes in the environment, such as when sunrise occurs, can affect an organism’s Darwinian fitness. Therefore, we would expect natural selection to shape behavior to account for diel changes. Great T**s ( Parus major ) and many other songbirds mate within monogamous pairs, and may mate at any time during the day.

If this post goes up, then it means we are still away from civilisation and without computer, internet, electricity and running water. It means we are hopefully finding some new birds for the year list off the beaten track somewhere north of Broome… can’t be too specific can I!!?? When we have had the very big tides in Broome during June there are a few beaches worth checking out for the remaining migratory shorebirds and the resident shorebirds alongside other water birds.
