10,000 Birds

APRIL 24, 2021

I strained to see them, could only see an occasional booby escape our bow, watch some of the hundreds of Wedge-tailed and Pink-footed Shearwaters zip by and hold on as our boat tested its speed. As we approached and drew nearly alongside the small seabirds, we also tested the limits of our optics, our balance, and our focus.

10,000 Birds

JANUARY 3, 2017

Greater Adjutants are huge birds that were once widespread across much of Southeast Asia; today there are two small breeding populations in India and Cambodia. There is no experience comparable to birding a dump, and, I have to say, I have never experienced a dump like this one. There were several there, plus Lesser Adjutants.

If you’ve blogged about your weekend experience, you should include a link in your comment. I had a beautifull view on 5 horned grebe here (one in breeding plumage), in Ann Arbor Michigan, for the 3 seconds it lasted, until I heard a huge “CRRACK&# , and I fell through the ice. What was your best bird of the weekend?

I attended a talk by Mark Anderson, Birdlife South Africa’s CEO, on the organization’s successes, one of six optional evening presentations, and was impressed by the specificity and diversity of their projects. The small group was a good counterpart to the large, convivial ABA Safari group of 98 birders.

There is much to enjoy and appreciate here and I only wish I could have tested out some of these species accounts in pelagic waters before writing about them (sadly, the 10,000 Birds pelagic to Antarctica was canceled this year). The description then goes into detail about adult (breeding and nonbreeding), juvenile, and immature plumage.
