Surfbirds of Conquista Agraria

10,000 Birds

As we are preparing to bid farewell to all of our winter time migrants, I took a three day break from work, and went to the Pacific side of the Baja. Conquista Agraria, along the Pacific Ocean, is a beach front area, bordered by arid sandy desert. There is a nice mix of rough, rocky outcrops, along with flat, almost white sandy beach sections. During the winter this area has a couple of pretty nice surf breaks that attracts quite a few surfer dudes and dudettes.

Where Are You Birding This Final Weekend of March 2017?

10,000 Birds

This transitional time of year feels different depending on which side of the equinox you’re on, as Michael P. Garofalo once eloquently expressed: Last day of Winter, leafless walnut trees– form is emptiness. First day of Spring, clear sky to Mt. Shasta– emptiness is form.

10,000 Birds

Four weeks have gone by since I introduced you to an odd Greater Sand Plover on our local beaches that has changed both its skin colour and plumage over recent months despite being several years old.

The End of Ezra

10,000 Birds

Last Saturday, the Janet L. Swanson Wildlife Health Center received an adult male Red-tailed Hawk that had been found on Cornell University’s campus. The bird’s injured wing proved, when x-rayed, to be badly broken – so badly that even with treatment he would never be able to fly again. On Sunday May 19 2017, he was euthanized. A few days later the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology contacted the Wildlife Health Center to ask if they’d received any red-tails recently.
