The Beauty of Tropical Birdiness in Arenal, Costa Rica

10,000 Birds

“Birdiness” No, not an official word but, um, so what? Many birds sing local dialects, and human languages are dynamic, they can’t help but change, evolve over time. It’s what they do, otherwise, we might be speaking some long forgotten Homo sapiens root language. I wish I knew that one, then I could say that I know the original words, and I am adding “birdiness” to the original lexicon.

Best Bird of the Weekend (Third of February 2018)

10,000 Birds

Weekends are much like birds, in that some are more prosaic than others. Not all can be stunners or megas. Were we to ascribe to weekends the taxonomy of birds, our days would likely resemble our lists: for every resplendent songbird or wild raptor would be ten ordinary gulls or pigeons, interesting in their own rights but hardly worth raving about.

A bat flew over my house a few days ago. That sentence may sound like the beginning of a horror story, but this bat bade well, serving as a reminder to those of us in the frosty north that winter eventually ends. Another sure sign of spring turned up just the next morning in the form of two Common Grackles stalking my lawn. Make no mistake, areas like mine have plenty of cold and snow still in store for the next month or two.

Anchorage Brewing Company: Whiteout Wit

10,000 Birds

Here in Albany County, New York, we tied the statewide high temperature for February of 78° on Wednesday – and on the very next day, we had freezing temperatures and got about four inches of snow. Wacky weather notwithstanding, it seems we haven’t yet seen the last of winter, so after some momentary second-guessing, I’m back to feeling good about reviewing a beer called Whiteout now that we’re in for more flurries and chilly temperatures.

Week three, the road goes on forever.

10,000 Birds

Well, I have to admit there have been times when it has seemed like that. We will cover nearly 3000 miles driving before we reach Seattle, and our final stop. Road conditions and traffic have gotten much easier now that we are traveling in the US, and so today we were headed to Eugene, Oregon. My college Alma Mater, the University of Oregon, and one of my favorite places there is.
