Unbroken corridors connecting Finca Luna Nueva to outstanding habitat like the 50,000 acre Children’s Eternal Rainforest also help attract rare deep forest species like White-fronted Nunbird. Corey and I put the lodge’s birdiness to the test as members of the team covering Finca Luna Nueva for the 2014 Arenal Bird Count.

When I came here for the first time in 2014, I stayed at the Limneo B&B in the Chrisochorafa Village and met its owner, Nikos Gallios. Nikos managed to show us the incubating Cattle Egrets, of which only 2 or 3 pairs breed in this enormous heronry, counting up to 9000 pairs back in 2014. What should I expect?

Conservationists at the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) have been using remote controlled drones to watch the nests of endangered breeds and monitor the progress of reintroduced species. But how can we protect animals from drones in the hands of irresponsible pilots ?

A 2014 Smithsonian study concluded that collisions likely kill 365 million to 1 billion birds annually in the U.S., They believe the number is closer to one billion because since 2014 there has been a steady increase in buildings of glass and because they think bird carcasses are undercounted. ** [link].

This past Saturday, 8 March, was perhaps the nicest day of 2014 so far in New York. It was the only real highlight at Shinnecock for we two jaded birders, though we did appreciate seeing all three scoters, a whole bunch of Common Eiders , both species of scaup, some Great Cormorants , and a bunch of Red-breasted Mergansers.

A thread on BirdChat two weeks ago reminded me of a fascinating paper that went up online last fall and was published in the January 2014 issue of Evolution: Migration, mitochondria, and the Yellow-rumped Warbler (Toews et al.). So what does all this mean — if anything — for how the birds are split or lumped at the species level?

are up next, with a wonderful Australian species: It is very hard to choose a Best Bird of the Year any year. The male of this species has a royal blue throat, a white chest and rump, and a long v-shaped tail with intermittent white patches that makes it looks like part of it are floating in space. Clare (and Grant!) How cool is that?
