A Field Guide to the Wildlife of South Georgia: A Book Review by a Penguin Groupie

10,000 Birds

SEPTEMBER 4, 2012

Over 3 million pairs of Antarctic Fur Seals breed on South Georgia, saved from near extinction by fur hunters. Others, my favorites, show the species within the habitat: breaching Humpback Whales, a Reindeer confronting a King Penguin (below), an elevated view of a beach full of breeding Fur Seals.

The Feather Thief: A Book Review

10,000 Birds

JULY 3, 2018

Each fly has a name and a ‘recipe’ to follow for its creation, a complicated procedure utilizing a hook, sometimes fur, sometimes wool, but always brightly colored feathers from rare birds. The skins were invaluable tools for ornithological, ecological, environmental research. Kelson, published in 1895.
