Our Favorite Bird Books (and one pair of Binoculars) of 2022

10,000 Birds

Mark]: This luscious book, Penguins: The Ultimate Guide , by De Roy, Jones, and Cornthwaite, is the second edition of a book first published in 2015. Anything else we could say about this great book would only be more in the way of superlatives. (And the price has not increased since 2015; it’s a bargain.).

10,000 Birds

As usual, my experience with such boardwalks was somewhat underwhelming, as was Eshowe as a whole, but there were still a few birds worth mentioning at the forest and in the area surrounding Eshowe. But the text was last updated in 2015 while the DNA research was done in 2018. But the same species was never found again.

Saving the Drowning Cormorant, or the Kerkini Lake, Greece

10,000 Birds

For long it was assumed that the saplings cannot survive being under water half a year, from spring to August, but recently another theory was tested.

Seabirds: The New Identification Guide: An ID Guide Review

10,000 Birds

There is much to enjoy and appreciate here and I only wish I could have tested out some of these species accounts in pelagic waters before writing about them (sadly, the 10,000 Birds pelagic to Antarctica was canceled this year).
