North American breeders winging their way south for the winter may want to head for the Bahamas, where a new national park offers them protected habitat. Don’t put off that birding trip to Ghana on your to-do list—if trends continue, illegal logging may leave you with nothing left to see. Staff from the San Diego Zoo think so.
His collection was impressive and overwhelmingly illegal so he will remain unnamed too. He did know all the little roads in the area and as he wasn’t a trapper but a breeder we asked him to show us the way. We were introduced to a local specialist, but this gentleman turned out to be interested in caged birds.
Heine (1840-1920) was a German ornithologist, agronomist, and plant-breeder and unfortunately not related to the substantially more famous German writer Heinrich Heine, which will not keep me from quoting the latter: “The more I get to know people, the more I like dogs.” Like the figbird, it mostly feeds on fruit.
He interviews breeders about rumors of raptor trafficking and egg smuggling, activities that have supposedly been stopped.

The first three sections are brief, presenting a summary of the bird’s current NYC status (migrant, resident, breeder, vagrant, etc.), It’s a very mixed chapter. The authors’ detailed delineation of problems with the accuracy of NYC breeding bird surveys or with the limits of historical writings may test a reader’s patience.
There seem to be so many that some days the negative stories just seem to pile up in my reader, species lost here, habitat destroyed there, poisoning, illegal persecution, the list can seem endless. It can be difficult not to feel impotent and under attack from all sides.
