Need help identifying an animal bite - please help!!

Reddit Animals

Then, not to be gross my nose started running like a faucet, my throat got sore, and I had a headache for the rest of the day. Nose running, sore throat and headache. The next morning, I woke up, and noticed two perfect fang marks on my leg. I went to urgent care and they suggested I get the rabies vaccine. Please help!!

Best Bird of the Weekend (Third of November 2021)

10,000 Birds

Plenty of other species stopped by, of course, but they were sorely outnumbered. A mundane weekend makes for mundane birds, so I had to settle for watching House Sparrows chew through my feeders.

10,000 Birds

If your neck is sore from being on a swivel this weekend, may I suggest swiveling with your hips to get through the rest of the month? Any time of year that features skies filled with birds pretty much all day demands attention pretty much all day.

Birding: Special Lockdown Edition

10,000 Birds

Some sorely needed comic relief came via a Japanese Tit. If I remember correctly, I once read something by a British birder spotting a rare Olive-backed Pipit somewhere in the UK. He marveled at the exquisite beauty of the bird. Hard for me to understand, to be honest, but then the bird is very common here in winter.

Where Are You Birding This Second Weekend of February 2014?

10,000 Birds

Fortunately, some fresh diversions beckon… I can afford to stay inside where it’s toasty and warm this weekend, because I have two editions of the Sibley Guide to compare and contrast (although the word contrast may be a sore point with the newer edition). How about you?

Critter News

I think that they are effective and, while I don't always agree with them, we would sorely miss them if they disappeared from the animal rights community. My husband and I disagree over PETA's effectiveness. I think this opinion piece does a good job arguing in favor of PETA. They keep people on their toes.
