Comment before midnight on August 8, 2010. It’s no accident that dogs evolved this way, as humans have been selectively breeding them for around 14,000 years to serve our needs as laborer, companion, hunter, herder and warrior, as well as to suit our aesthetic fancy.

My second favorite rescue story is that of Hunter, a beagle-ish dog that my daughter and son-in-law adopted from a shelter in Massachusetts. Turns out even though they knew that Hunter had found his forever home, he didn’t know it. Guest Post: Susan Wilson originally appeared on 4 The Love of Animals on March 4, 2010.

Note in this 2010 video, birders, birdwatching and kayakers are mentioned, not hunters. Visitors are encouraged to wear hunter orange during hunting seasons for safety. Does that sound like a simple solution to the decreased funding coming from the dwindling numbers of hunters and fishers? www.youtube.com/watch?v=sk_5pt9OTLA.

The chart of breeding bird survey data goes up, up, up, particularly for the period from 1990 to 2010. The distribution map of the state is filled with green (counted for both atlases) and blue (second atlas period only) but very little yellow (first atlas period only), meaning there are many more blocks where breeding activity was observed.

I’ve also seen them in Greece twice: one sighting was a flock of nine birds at Lake Kerkini in January 2010, while a single individual I saw there in November 2017 was accompanying Russian Whitefronts (and not the nearby Lesser Whitefronts.)

Apparently, King Parrot are an Australian grindcore band formed in Melbourne in 2010. On the other hand, the Black Kite is a raptor not known for integrity – Black Kites are opportunistic hunters and are more likely to scavenge ( source ).

There is no “sport” when one “competitor,” the hunter, equipped with a high-powered weapon, camouflage clothing and other devices, pursues an unsuspecting animal. The reason hunting has no future in this country is that the next generation of potential hunters will not accept these myths. Aland Winnetka, Ill.,

And then, in 1996, a farmer/fossil-hunter named Li Yinfang found a unique fossil in his home province of Liaoning–a beautifully preserved turkey-sized creature that clearly had feathers.

This book is the story of his search for his grail and what he does with it and why, a quest that took place from 2005 to 2010 in the Russian province of Primorye.

As 2012 draws to a close we here at 10,000 Birds thought that it would be a great idea if we, like we did in 2010 and 2011 , shared our Best Birds of the Year. Considering the bird survived a season in an area saturated with hunters and birds of prey, this facemelting rarity deserves our respect.

The migrants face many perils, hunters, predators, adverse weather conditions and lack of refueling opportunities due to habitat loss. The beats have been out to line their route and cheer them along, wishing them bon voyage and a safe return next spring. At the far ends of the world, our southern beats are poised to welcome them back.
