The winter months are dark in the boreal forest. Hours of available hunting are low and temperatures are extremely low. It’s a miracle that anything can find sustenance and survive here. The birds that live here are tough and belong mainly to particular families of birds. Owls do particularly well here, the long nights actually working in their favour by increasing hunting time.

Coming in for the landing over the East River one looks left to a cityscape of epic proportions, lit up like a fairytale mountain range. I’m only saying, the Dutch know how to pick a good spot for a city. Location, location, location – we have said it before.

At one point, a White-tailed Eagle does not change its position anymore, obviously an alarming sign, and subsequently is found dead in a field. It had fallen forward onto a dead coot.

Woodpeckers are a fascinating family. They bang away at trees with their beaks, without knocking themselves silly. They excavate nest holes, which later become homes for other birds and small mammals, making them a keystone species. There are 22 species of woodpeckers in the US and Canada. I have seen 21 of them. Here, I share my favourites. Red-headed Woodpecker 2.

(Please don't make fun of me for this) For a while now, I've always wondered what a fox's tail feels like. In media, people say that they're very soft. Eventually, I had the grand idea that I wanted to try napping on a Fox's tail. I want the back of my head to feel it similar to how one sleeps on a pillow. Problem is, most foxes are. wild.

I live in an apartment building, and around me there are 5-6 more. I was advised to go out to the street when the screaming starts and try to locate the apartment where the abuse happens that way.

So I wanted to share this story because I thought it was really cool and it at least shocked me. So today I was walking along a trail out throwing rocks and doing usual outside activities. Out in the distance I spotted a hawk flying around I think he was just checking me out maybe I was in his territory or something but nonetheless I got bored and waved the bird over to come walk with me then I started running.

I have 2 blue heelers that are 3yo and in great health. About 6 days ago one of them started sneezing occasionally, and 2 days later the other one started. Nothing in the environment has changed for them. They have never had allergies. They are otherwise fine. still going on runs and eating/drinking/happy. But they are sneezing A LOT. like when they are awake its probably every 20-30 seconds. but when they are asleep they don't sneeze at all.

Hello, I own property in Maine and recently found a dead crow half buried in my garden. Today I found another one half buried in some grass clippings. Neither has any signs of injury. I'm worried this is avian flu. Does anyone have any experience or explanations for this? We have a huge crow population and really enjoy watching them. I called the USDA and they're calling me back.
