The general public is out and about, birds and animals are raising their young, and human/wildlife interaction is at its peak. Change in Law. I wish for a federal law prohibiting domestic and feral cats from roaming free outdoors. Why is there no state or federal money available to care for federally protected species?

Nevertheless, five years seems a good time to reflect on the blogging experience. I initially thought I would focus on the intersection of birding and the law and birding on federal public lands, and I have done lots of posts on those topics. The post entitled “ Top 25 National Wildlife Refuges for Birding ” is likely second.

So armed with some knowledge from the “ Access Considerations for Birding Locations ” page on the Birdability website and some research, I twice visited the Tualatin River National Wildlife Refuge near Portland, Oregon with accessibility in mind. Some access issues are addressed by federal law. eBird checklists are here and here.).

In the relatively brief period, my group had something on the order of 450 species. I, personally, had around 430.

In simplest terms it is where the landfast ice meets the open ocean, and it is a magnet for wildlife, especially in the 24 hour light of the Arctic spring. This June my brother-in-law and I took off to Kangiq (Cape Crauford), the western edge of of the mouth of Admiralty Inlet to Lancaster Sound. A scant 24 hours to take it in.

“Below the 40th latitude there is no law; below the 50th no god; below the 60th no common sense and below the 70th no intelligence whatsoever.” (“Antarctica” by Kim Stanley Robinson, 1998). So close to the pole only a handful of bird species can survive, and even so, death toll is very high, hence their populations must be huge (millions).
