The millions of stars and galaxies twinkling over the Rupununi Savanna in Guyana seem to reluctantly fade into a gradually lightening sky as the eastern horizon reddens. The Pakaraima mountains slowly materialize from the darkness, silently encircling the flatness of the savanna. This places feels almost as if herds of zebra and giraffe are just out of view.

Curlews are long-lived birds, so their decline is not always apparent, with pairs returning annually to their favoured nesting area, despite not having fledged any chicks for years.

Famous Flamingos

Back in 2016 one very unexpected bird appeared in the Mexican highlands: an American Flamingo. It took up residence for part of each year in the Parque Metropolitano of the city of León, Guanajuato, to the northeast of Guadalajara and well northwest of Mexico City. This is an urban site with a good number of birders, so it is very likely that whenever it was not reported there for a few months, it was because they it had moved elsewhere.

My rescued robin of four years’ leg is broken

Last night my robins leg broke because my dog was playing too rough with her or something. I didn’t exactly see what happened maybe my dog rolled over her? But her leg is broken at the joint and I don’t know what to do. I’ve had her since she was a baby with no feathers (I found her in the middle of my yard with no nests around because I don’t have trees so I took her in and took care of her like feeding her three times per night until adulthood and she’s super healthy).
