An Inspiration for Life

10,000 Birds

As a small child I was fascinated by animals, but it was when a pair of Blackbirds nested close to the house that I really became interested in birds. I wanted to learn more about them, so my parents gave me the five shillings I needed to buy my first bird book: The Observer’s Book of Birds. This charming little book was first published in 1937: my copy was the new edition, which came out in… Source Birding Birds Brooke Bond tea cards Charles Tunnicliffe Cock of the Rock Observer's B

What is one thing you wish zoos did differently, or what aspects of a zoo do you like and don’t like?

Reddit Animals

Hi, I am a university student currently doing an assignment on zoo enclosure design. The assignment is to create a zoo enclosure for an animal given to your group which is rarely in zoos (im not saying what animal im designing an enclosure for). I am curious about how the general public views zoo enclosures and what they want different. I know some of you probably know a lot about zoos but am still curious about your opinions.

Vultures at the carcass

10,000 Birds

I was brought up in the old school in which the established dogma, when it came to European vultures at least, was that there was a hierarchy when it came to feeding at carcasses. The story went something like this. The largest and most powerful species – the Cinereous Vulture (Aegypius monachus) – was the first to arrive.

While spending nearly two weeks in southern France for a vacation with my university friends, I could not resist the temptation to sneak away one morning for a small birding outing.

A Little Queer Natural History

10,000 Birds

The “clickbait” title for this post could well have been “The gays are making our bears queer” but no, this is a book review, not a cable news show. It is however, a review with a high potential for offense, hurt feelings and other emotional drama that normally drives us all into fields and woods to watch birds.

What is one animal you have phobia of?

Reddit Animals

Yellow jacket wasp and hornet species mainly because the thought that they can fly fast, are always buzzing around your picnic area, they can become aggressive when you raid their nest not to mention they do have photographic memory and unlike an bee, could sting you over and over since their stingers are smooth and pointed upwards which enables them to not lose their stinger right away For tarantulas and scorpions (who I’m not afraid of) at least you can walk away and at least spot them in time
