Artist Enrique Gomez De Molina was sentenced to 20 months in prison and a $6,000 fine in Miami on Friday for trafficking in illegal and threatened wildlife. “In promoting that message, he fell grievously from doing things the right way and became one of the very people he tried to educate,” Kuehne said.
These two water management wetlands are amongst the very best birding and photography locations in south Florida. link] From the tangled scrub at the entrance to Green Cay my guests emerge on the boardwalk, cooing and ahing at the tameness of all the birds. If not THE best.
Among the things that more and more birders have mentioned to me over the years is their urge to start their own birding blog, but they just don’t know how to go about it. Some people prefer WordPress (which is what 10,000 Birds uses), some people prefer Blogger. When there is a will, there is a way. Pick a platform.
As I mention each year at this time, the beginning of the birding year, up north, is the end of Mexico’s peak birding season.

While in Belize for my family vacation one of the birds I most wanted to see was a Jabiru. The massive, shoe-billed stork is an amazing bird to see even in the pages of a field guide; to see one in the field, for real, would be unbelievably awesome. It seems like everywhere in Belize that we went we saw lots of dump trucks.)
