Islands in the Sun

10,000 Birds

As I write these lines, I am excited and preparing for the start of a Calpe Conference here in Gibraltar. We have been organizing these events annually since 1997 and the conference, which starts on Thursday 4th July, carries the title that I have chosen for this article. “Islands in the Sun” is about Macaronesia, the collective term used to define the Atlantic Islands of the Azores, Madeira, the Canaries and Cape Verde.

Cat found in my backyard, no mother.

Reddit Animals

I found this cat in my backyard when my dog wouldn’t stop barking at it. So I put the dogs away, and brought the cat inside. It’s been drinking water that I gave it. What can I feed the cat?

To fly or to be invisible: a birder’s perspective

10,000 Birds

I have always found the question about which of the two superpowers to choose – to be able to fly, or to be invisible – an intriguing one. For me, it has come down to a choice between extroversion – flying – and introversion – invisibility. How to answer this question from a birder’s perspective? My hunch is that most birders are more on the introversion side of the whole spectrum, though I am sure there are many exceptions to this (hello Peter!).

Bunting Banter near Bonn

10,000 Birds

Okay, not truly near Bonn, but I made a feeble yet desperate attempt to have the title be an alliteration. Only after I came up with this, I realized that the title an earlier post of mine is also a b-based alliteration, which I guess I should accept is more an indication of my limited creativity than an inevitable result of me living in Bonn. Some time ago I visited the Wagbachniederung (see my last post ) and as I would be traveling more or less along the Rhine to get back, I decided to throw

Birding Shanghai in June 2024

10,000 Birds

Seeing a Black-throated Laughingthrush at Nanhui was a surprise. I listed it on eBird – but my experience (and not only mine) is that the motto of eBird reviewers generally is “If I see it, it’s a vagrant – if you see it, it’s an escapee.” And so it turned out. The Black-winged Cuckooshrike is breeding in several Shanghai locations – I suspect that some trees near the Nanhui hotel might be another one, given the vigorous singing of this bird.

Desky the cat - Animal abuse?

Reddit Animals

[link] This dude seems like he is harassing his cat for content. They're normally in a dim room and he has his flash on like less than 1 foot away from it's face. A ton of the clips start with the cat falling down from the ceiling. No away it's doing that on purpose, right? Cats have really sensitive eyes if I'm not mistaken. Shining a light in it's face can't be good for it.

I need help regarding my dog

Reddit Animals

My dog ludo is 1 and a half years old, he's the best. He's always happy and pretty tough. But he hurt himself and I don't know how. This morning I had to go to work, and he was happy. I came home from work and he was happy but reluctant to jump on me (which is how he usually greets me). He was also yelping randomly. So got a treat and I asked him to jump up to get the treat, and he tried and yelped hard.

What is this? (TN)

Reddit Animals

I never saw it move, so it might be dead. It was found in Tennessee. I thought that the structures where its wings should be might be remnants of a cocoon, but they don’t look like that. Does anyone know what this is? It looks like a moth. I’m curious if it really is a moth, and if so, what type it is and what’s going on with the structure on its back.

What will happen to an injured bird I saw earlier?

Reddit Animals

It was a baby seagull, it seemed to have fallen out of its nest and was lying in the street with a mangled leg and wing. Poor thing was terrified and in pain. I phoned help and was told to take it to a vet, which someone else did. People were saying that it'll be put down though, I hope it can be helped but I suppose at least it won't be suffering.

Please don’t judge this situation

To clarify, this is truly a friend of mine, not me. He has a sick cat. He got laid off from work and cannot afford to get the cat put down. The cheapest he could find was $300. He tried animal shelters, everything. He can’t find s**t cheaper. What is the best way to do this? Is there a cheaper option? Is there something we aren’t thinking of. “Just loan him the $300”.

Not sure where all to post this

Reddit Animals

Hey guys. I'm in such a weird specific life predicament that's making it so hard to be happy. I'm reaching out for IRL help, mainly a housing situation or just advice. When I was 16 years old I adopted a baby black mini pig. His name is Moo. Pigs rank as the 5th most intelligent animal in the world and are extremely emotional. In fact, they're more trainable than dogs.

Help catching a hampster!

Reddit Animals

Hello! I just want to preface: the hampster is not mine! We found a hampster in our apartment that had apperantly been living there since before we moved in. We asked the maintenance guys to take care of it (but surprise surprise, they didnt) so we got one of those big metal traps that doesn't kill it. I'm worried about the trap being too big and the hampster escaping through the bars/not triggering it, but my partner is more worried about what to bait the trap with.
