Once again thanks to the good folks at Houghton Mifflin Harcourt we here at 10,000 Birds are giving away books! This time the tome that three lucky readers will receive is Birds of Prey: Hawks, Eagles, Falcons, and Vultures of North America by Pete Dunne. Carrie reviewed the book here and, like me, she has a soft spot for Pete Dunne’s prose. Here’s a quick excerpt from Carrie’s review so you have some idea what it is you can win.

Way back in the days when blog posts still got a lot of comments, I wrote a piece on why field guides that arrange species in a more or less strict taxonomic order regularly frustrate me. I gave a number of reasons in a great number of paragraphs and got an enormous amount of comments, many of which were highly critical of what I had said. The original post is here , and if you have some left-over time, spending it on going through the comments is time well spent.

In 2009, I traveled from New York City to the tropical rainforest of Ecuador. It was my first trip to the Neotropics, and I had no idea what I was getting into. More than a difference in humidity and temperature, everything was different–from the hundreds of species of plants and trees, to the way the trees grew out and around and in and out rather than simply up, to the Morpho butterflies fluttering around those trees in dreamlike swoops that never landed, to the birds themselves, which d

The weather is warming up for most of us now, and it’s time to get outside and spend more time with our pets! Awhile back I got to attend a super fun tech afternoon for bloggers.

Shorebirds are part of the avian scene in Costa Rica, pretty much all year long. During the winter months, thousands of small wading birds frequent the mud flats of the Gulf of Nicoya as well as estuaries on both coasts. Even more pass through Costa Rica during spring and fall migration, and in summer, you can cross paths with an errant Whimbrel and other shorebirds that opt to extend the vacation in Costa Rica rather than heading way north to the boggy breeding grounds.

So many lucky people are gathered in Northwest Ohio right now for The Biggest Week in American Birding. Those of us who aren’t there are at least a little lucky–though clearly not as blessedly immersed in amazing avian observation as some others–since the current wave of bird migration blankets the globe. Anywhere you are, something fresh and new, something you haven’t seen in months or years or ever , could be entering your airspace any moment.

One of the constants here on the Baja, is sunshine, about 325 days a year we have bright beautiful sunny days. Last Saturday was just exactly that kind of day. We loaded the truck and headed out to continue our exploration of the Sierra De La Laguna Biosphere. [link]. This large reserve has its namesake mountain range running right down the middle of it, and virtually no roads.

Around here, we’re getting the last of April showers and the earliest of migrants. Everywhere else, other things are happening. But no matter where you are, you undoubtedly have good reasons to get out and enjoy nature right now. But did you? Every year, I look forward to the arrival, brief as it is, of White-crowned Sparrows to my feeders; this weekend, a gorgeous pair dropped in for breakfast.

After all the rain in the northern part of Western Australia in recent months it is not too surprising that there has been an eruption of Black-tailed Native-hens. We have yet to encounter any around Broome this year and our last sighting here was of the one lone Black-tailed Native-hen last year. No doubt they will soon arrive as the smaller ephemeral lakes and swamps start to dry out, but for now there are large flocks of them to the south in the Pilbara.
