Is there a trend toward more literary paper titles? One was reported to have raided the nest of a Grey-throated Babbler , eating at least two eggs and possibly one nestling ( source ). Presumably, Grey-throated Babblers are not very fond of monkeys, especially the (potentially misnamed) Grey Leaf Monkey.

The species is classified as Near Threatened for all the usual depressing reasons – pollution, drainage, hunting, and the collection of eggs and nestlings ( source ). Trust me, the species name makes sense for the male, though not for the female. It is also classified as Near Threatened.

Written by birders, it underlies a wealth of facts, trends, and events with a consciousness that the more knowledgeable we are about good bird feeding practices, based on history and experience, the more successful bird feeding will be at bringing people to birds and the more people will advocate for effective conservation policies and laws.

An additional benefit would be less nest predation by tidal mudflat crabs, the primary cause of Reed Parrotbill egg predation in tidal reed-bed habitat ( source ). Apparently, this is part of a broader trend – it has also been observed in Taiwan ( source ). This individual is apparently practicing some kind of weird yoga.

The male Black-throated Bushtits participate in incubation, the somewhat more macho Silver-throated Bushtits do not ( source ), presumably spending more time in pubs while leaving the rather boring job of sitting on a bunch of eggs for days on end to their female partners.

Like a bad boyfriend not changing into nicer clothes for an evening out, the Brown-cheeked Fulvetta gets chided on eBird for not making any efforts: “an unapologetically drab and unmarked fulvetta” The Chestnut-headed Bee-eater apparently digs nest-burrows in which to lay its eggs. A worrying trend. I am only joking!

That year Congress passed the Lacey Act, followed by the tougher Weeks-McLean Act in 1913 and, five years later, the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, which protected not just birds but also their eggs, nests, and feathers 1. It is obvious that hunting is NOT conservation.

Kelly wondered whether the term "vegan" is " worth fighting for " given the latest trend of seemingly oxymoronish (waiting for that one to hit Webster's) terminology from the mouths of people who want to find a way to use animals, yet make it appear that they're not. Okay, that's not what she wrote, but that does seem to be what's occurring.

There are new Francione-style abolitionists and new people to veganism who debate about the ethics of consuming eggs from their neighbor's chickens. This trend of nastiness I've noticed that's probably about a year old happens to coincide with the rudeness we Americans have been hearing about in politics and society in general.

Her use of the term food “fashion” is appropriate: many people today do not make informed choices about their diet; rather, they are influenced by trends, advertising and the political correctness of food. It is well settled that a balanced diet of these foods provides the same essential amino acids that Nina Planck finds in an egg.
