Fish and Wildlife Service is down-listing the wood stork from endangered to threatened under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). Fish and Wildlife Service, I was involved in various aspects of the species habitat protection largely on the regulatory arena.

This third obstacle seemed impossible to overcome until I discovered that the Port Townsend Marine Science Center hosts Puffin Cruises aboard the 65′ Glacier Spirit, owned and operated by Puget Sound Express. Once the salmon started heading upstream the eagles would disperse and go after them. But how to get there?
Faithful 10,000 Birds readers will remember Suzie as our wildlife rehabilitation beat writer. Twenty-five-year-old Luna Burke is risking everything to smuggle a homicidal BaldEagle out of her husband’s private zoo in Florida, reunite the bird with its mate, and get them both to an eagle sanctuary in Canada. And birders!
This is where we learn how to differentiate Broad-winged migrating hawks from Red-tails, immature BaldEagles from immature Golden Eagles, Northern Harriers from “the rest” and, of course, that classic conundrum, how to know a Sharp-shinned Hawk from a Cooper’s Hawk. These are not just drawings of hawks per se.
of Fish and Wildlife Commissioner Jon Gassett has indicated that if enough people write in protest, the proposed hunting season–due to start this December– will be reconsidered. Hunting is on a steady downturn, and nonconsumptive wildlife pursuits are on a tremendous upswing. We can fight them back in Kentucky, too.
For example, I’ve seen BaldEagles in 15 states. And I will continue my quest to see all of my Top 25 National Wildlife Refuges for Birding too. Moreover, it contributes to science (and economics ) and the price is right. Of course, you can use the data in many ways. GPS-tracked miles.

Phenology is a vital science. Yes, it’s vital to leash your dog and teach him to be respectful of wildlife, but if you can manage that, he will make a phenologist out of you. A pair of BaldEagles scopes out the Clark Fork for likely snags. But good phenology is hard. By you, of course, I mean me.
And although the single BaldEagle we spotted just outside the park was probably more interested in fish, they are known to enjoy fawn as well, when they can carry it. So does this guy: Images by Jesse Achtenberg, courtesy of the National Fish and Wildlife Service.
