But in south-west Europe there is a bird that kicks out the sitting tenants and takes over the nest altogether. The White-rumped Swift Apus caffer , a tropical African breeding species, was only discovered breeding in Europe in the 1960s.

That is why I am so pleased to see the new “Gulls of Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East: An Identification Guide” being illustrated with nearly 1400 colour photographs of the 45 species of gulls found in the Western Palearctic. And even the best of and the most respected painters are not spared of such scrutiny. Highly recommended.

WHY ARE THERE NO GATORS IN EUROPE? We got plenty of food, no predators (as far as I can think at least) and in some States of the U.S there's pretty cold winter's and still gators. Couldn't just 1 small population of Gators spread in rivers and lake? submitted by /u/West_March_6448 [link] [comments]

I want to alert you to a recent study (from April) that looks at the plight of bird populations under conditions of climate change in Europe and North America. The study looked at common birds, and used data divided by either state (in the US) or country (in Europe). Again, Europe is on the left, North America is on the right.

Birds that nest in southern Africa winter to the north in the tropics, while birds that breed in southern Europe and Turkey migrate south to, you guessed it, tropical Africa. I wonder whether birds that breed in Europe ever meet up with those nest in southern Africa? Cyprus is one of those places where anything can turn up.

That is, species that migrate down western Europe in autumn but rarely cross the Sahara Desert. They stay in south-west Europe and north-west Africa. When we look at it closely, we find that this is not the case. In fact, the breeding birds are overwhelmingly dominated by pre-Saharan migrants.
