Chilling out with Rollers and Hoopoes

10,000 Birds

Quiet morning on the Danube, paddling again after too long a time. It is a workday morning and despite being inside the city of Belgrade, we have the entire river to ourselves. In the middle of it, one Eurasian Hobby greets us on its way from one bank to another. A quick dip into a side branch, for a few Black-crowned Night-Herons , but a thick carpet of floating vegetation stops us after half a mile.

The Hidden Qualities of House Sparrows

10,000 Birds

Bird blogging in May always gives me the creeps. This ridiculous focus of the Birding Internet on North American wood-warblers is boring on a quiet day and highly annoying during peak migration. Birders in the Americas may not be aware of it, but from the higher ground of a European perspective the American “warblers” are intensely overrated.

White-backed Vultures are Proper Birds

10,000 Birds

It can’t have escaped your notice lately that the blog has been overrun with articles about North America’s pseudo-warblers (or wood warblers, as some people, apparently unaware the name is taken by a proper European species, call them), and, even worse, no small amount of poetry. Thanks to a relatively feral childhood I have been left immune to the power of poetry, so I shall dismiss the poetry (a form of art comparable at best to interpretive dance) with a simple dismissive wave of

Downy Woodpeckers at the nest

10,000 Birds

I was flummoxed during a recent trip to Dallas as my company had changed our hotel and I had no idea where I was. Public transport from that part of town went nowhere near anywhere I wanted to be, so I slept in and took a mid-morning stroll around the neighbourhood. A pair of nesting Downy Woodpeckers were the highlight of the walk and I wanted to share them with you.

Best Bird of the Weekend (Second of May 2015)

10,000 Birds

Mid-May is one of those times of year where everything needs to take a backseat to birding. Are new migrants flooding your area? If so, we hope you’re getting out there to greet them! Corey saw 115 species of bird on Saturday alone so he had lots of to choose from in picking his Best Bird of the Weekend. And it was an easy choice because he had one standout bird, a Dickcissel that he found at Fort Tilden, a very unusual bird on the east coast in spring!

Where Are You Birding This Third Weekend of May 2015?

10,000 Birds

On a weekend like the one that lies ahead, when new birds filter through temperate climes in varied and variegated waves, the question can never be if you are birding. The only question is “Where?” I’m going to try to make run up to the migrant hotspots on the shore of Lake Ontario. Corey will be searching for the one or two birds in Queens he hasn’t already seen this month!

The Goal – 200 by 2016

10,000 Birds

I’ll come straight out and say that this is about my home county list. I know that reading someone’s words about their home county obsession is sort of like listening to them go on and on about a recent colonscopy, so feel free to move on if it’s not your thing. I won’t feel bad. But this story is also about a goal and the various and surprising ways one reaches a goal, too.

Melbourne’s Yarra River

10,000 Birds

When you are in Melbourne you can’t avoid the Yarra River that runs through it and although it is not particularly wide it is home to a variety of bird-life. The river is brown due to silt, but it does not deter the birds. One of the issues along the river is rubbish and it is a tidal river, so rubbish can be collected using a barge system. Not only is it a useful tool for collecting rubbish, but it makes for a perfect roost for many birds along the river as in the pictures above and below

Happy Mother’s Day

10,000 Birds

The second Sunday in May is the day many countries around the world, including the United States, set aside for the celebration of mothers. Since most of our moms tend to indulge us every other day of the year, it is only right that at least one day is for the moms! So, even if your mother was a brood parasite who left you to be raised by another bird family, she probably did it out of love.
