We can, of course, count wild, native, species. Of course, there are a lot more rules that apply to both birds that can and can’t be counted, and one of the most entertaining ways to get a bunch of birders to make a Facebook discussion thread go on forever is to innocently ask a question about some esoteric aspect of listing rules.

They range from the successful eradication of feral cats from Marion Island (hear that, Corey?) It was the first of six bustard species I would see over the course of both trips. The first bustard/korhaan I saw was the endemic Southern Black Korhaan at West Cape NP (called Black Bustard in eBird). I am a birder, after all.

Maybe it is.

I wrote about atheism, diabetes (which I do think is important and stay tuned for a video about canine diabetes and how to test blood sugar), dog food, feral cats, and of course, greyhound racing. But, probably because I was blogging daily and there wasn't great fodder daily, I expanded into other areas.

There’s a lot more, of course, and it all makes you wonder if we should have bird feeders or urban green spaces or fountains or windows.
