It seems that this is another species for which the standard phrase of scientists anywhere, “more research needed”, applies. The Latin name “frontalis” (meaning, as you can guess, something like “frontal”) referring to the distinct black forehead makes more sense.

If I was an ornithologist aiming for a grant, I would now definitely highlight the need for more research on this topic. Barn Swallows are a bit unhappy with their image as restless aerial hunters and would like to gain a more stately and dignified profile. They patiently sat for my photos in order to achieve this.

Seriemas are long-legged terrestrial hunters related to extinct terror birds (phorusrhacids). The SACC will have to determine whether they believe there’s strong enough evidence to make these changes now, or whether to wait for additional published research before making such significant sequence changes.

The topic was the concept of humans as predators, or hunters, or really, eaters of meat, and I was discussing the many ways in which people misconceived this notion. I did do some research on this topic, working with others. He correctly criticized my advisor at the time, Glynn Isaac, for having done that.

Joseph Chiera is a Masters student in Animal Behavior and Conservation at Hunter College in NYC and a “somewhat newbie” to birding. After a little research I decided to head out the next day to Pavlovsk Palace and Gardens, an 18th Century Russian Imperial residence located about 35 minutes away from the city via train.

The Birds of Prey chapter, on the other hand, is 18 pages long.

In 2012, I reviewed The Jewel Hunter , an absorbing narrative in which author Chris Goodie travelled throughout Asia, Africa, and Australasia to observe and photograph every Pitta species in the world. A passion for one bird family is also very useful. Like all talented travel writers, Dunn is adept at drawing us into his experiences.

For birders, it’s the extremely large book, shelved in a place where it can’t crush the field guides, used to research the history of a bird in their area. They utilized GIS (geographic information systems) technology to pinpoint breeding bird location to a level far beyond the usual block-based geographic model.

I write ‘focus-on-the-birds’ because it is highly probable that Harper had drawn birds before, but not in a highly focused manner that involved research, which he engaged in very seriously, and observation of bird behavior. A tradition was born. These are good examples of Harper’s art and text.

Over 3 million pairs of Antarctic Fur Seals breed on South Georgia, saved from near extinction by fur hunters.

Some of these specimens had labels with basic information and were stored for further work at a later time. Some remained stored for decades before a researcher would pick them up and inquired about these poorly documented specimens. A Guan was collected in 1876 in a mangrove forest near the border between Peru and Ecuador.

The majority of wildcats live today in Africa, and virtually none of them have provided the DNA from which supposed histories of domestication have been constructed by researchers. This almost certainly can be argued to be true just on the basis of logic, because feral Cats are proficient hunters and are entirely out of ecological place.

The imaginary scenario is clearly taken from eyewitness accounts, but sources are not footnoted. This is not that kind of book, as Fuller makes clear from the beginning.

Very little information was available at the time, so we hired a car and off we went, following the few tips we had managed to gather but mostly our noses. One of these colonies has now been opened to tourism after researchers studying the birds deemed visits by birders to be non-disruptive. And wow, what a trip we had!

The point is that even hunters seem to think that they need a reason to justify killing these animals. You don't find many hunters who candidly and unapologetically say: "I hunt because I like to kill. Of course, when hamburgers aren't at stake, most of us think that it would be morally wrong to kill an animal for no good reason.

On a very quiet night during a lull in the drama of the ducks, I was researching the Greyhound racing industry, and seething over its treatment of dogs as well as the support it often gets, through subsidies, to help it survive. I followed his call, but so did Emily The Hunter. So much for the predator instinct.
