5 Candidates for the Most Popular Bird in Costa Rica

10,000 Birds

All birds have value. I do believe that but…if I had to choose between a Rock Pigeon and a Golden-hooded Tanager, you can guess where I’d be focusing the binos! It’s hard not to look at the Golden-hooded Tanager. Let’s face it, some birds are more popular than others. There are bird species with the power of personality and feathered friends with super migratory prowess.

A bee needed help, it accepted help

Reddit Animals

Last week on Wednesday, I was on a bus and started hearing a buzzing sound. Looking around, I spotted a bee trying to get out of the bus, buzzing against a window. It was pretty big. Calmly and confidently, I went over to it and put my hand next to it. The second its leg touched my hand, the buzzing stopped. It climbed onto my hand. I slowly moved my hand, with the bee sitting calmly on it.

Binocular snobbery

10,000 Birds

Just as the make and condition of a car tells you a lot about its owner, so a person’s binoculars tell you a lot about their user. I am sure that all serious birders are guilty of looking at a fellow birdwatcher’s binoculars and concluding, rightly or wrongly, a lot about the person behind them. Here in the UK the Austrian manufacturer Swarovski dominates the quality end of the birding market, outselling by a sizeable margin its German-based rivals, Zeiss and Leica.

Blakiston’s Fish Owl on Hokkaido

10,000 Birds

When Jonathan Slaght did his research on Blakiston’s Fish Owl in Russia’s Far East – which he describes in his excellent book “Owls of the Eastern Ice” – he had to cope not only with extreme cold but also with rather bad music: “Katkov filled our commutes with loud music. He was particularly fond of a mix tape of Russian songs dominated by wolf-related themes, which we listened to exclusively for the first week.

Experiencing Spring at EVOA

10,000 Birds

The sentinels of a Portuguese spring were singing. While walking the dog I could hear Serin , Wren and several Black Redstarts proclaiming their territories. Mid-February is an early start for spring – even this far south – but spring is spring, and birds were waiting. I decided to go back to the Lezírias and specifically, visit EVOA. My plan was to do research for this post, so I decided to enter as a common mortal and not use the electronic pass.

Are komodo dragons protists?

Reddit Animals

I heard quite a while ago, from a source I don't remember, that komodo dragons can reproduce asexually, I did very limited research, but as I'm sure you all know, Google isn't exactly the best for easily extracting information from a source that isn't probably highly manipulated. As far as I'm aware, animals have to have sexual reproduction to be classified as animals, so why aren't komodo dragons commonly classified as just massive protists?

Bull Elk

Reddit Animals

I don’t know why this just came to my mind but when I was in 4th grade I was on a school field trip to the Grand Canyon. I remember walking away from my group of friends while we were in some woods, I remember just standing in one spot and readjusting my eyes to understand the huge figure suddenly about 10-15 feet away from me. It was from what I know think is a bull elk it was huge with big antlers and just stood there serenely in front of me.
