Where to go birding without the crowds in our busiest national park. In the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, over a half million acres visited by more than 11 million folks, you can still bird in relative solitude. I’ve been birding on the Tennessee side of GSM for over thirty years; and Cades Cove is at the top of my easily accessible, ‘private’ habitats.

Author: David Stott “Upsell current clients” has always been one of the mantras of the sales industry. After all, selling more to the base creates value beyond the obvious revenue gains. It increases trust, executive exposure, credibility, confidence, and provides a stronger ROI due to the decreased cost of goods sold. This not only creates value for the client, but also delivers an incredible customer experience that is paid forward in the industry. .

These are the summer months of the northern hemisphere and yet this time of year in Costa Rica is known as the “invierno”, Spanish for “winter” However, no matter how adapted I become to the local culture, I just can’t use that word in Costa Rica. No, because the real thing is the brittle cold days and frozen nights of my Niagara youth, a place where I delivered pre-dawn newspapers on empty icy streets, where the sharp stars pierced the night sky so quiet and bereft

I am something of an aficionado of National Wildlife Refuges. On this site, I have attempted to list the top 25 NWRs for birding , explained how to learn more about a particular NWR , and generally extolled the importance of the system to birds and birders. I am also a dutiful eBirder. But I somehow missed the introduction of some cool new features specifically for eBirding NWRs.

Summer weekends often mean summer road trips, mixed blessings at best. Of course, we love to visit new places and enjoy cool breezes at the shore, in the woods, or atop mountains. But travel often involves traffic, which–at least in my case–raises stress rather than lowers it. So, if you’re on the road this weekend, stay calm, have fun, and don’t drive like an idiot!

July often means travel, which sometimes means tourist attractions, which occasionally means exotic or introduced bird species. Following me here? Encountering exotics raises all manner of questions in birders, the toughest of which rarely center on identification. We may know these birds well, but should we love them? The reason I ask is because my family and I visited the Bronx Zoo this weekend.

Author: Charles Ebert Startups need guidance and advice from people who have been in their shoes in the past and managed to make it in their respective industries. Learning from those that have been there before can bring a great deal of insight into what to expect and how to tackle some of the main challenges that startups face. Marketing is a strategy that makes or breaks a business.

It is Tuesday night, and I am sitting in a historic hotel, just a kilometer or so north of the Scotland/England border. It seemed a fitting way to end our time here in Scotland. We are at the very farthest south in Scotland that we will travel, when just a week ago we were at Dunnet Head, the northern most part of the mainland Scotland. The entire week seems to be dominated by the two “bookends” as it were.

In the open woodlands not far from Broome we regularly encounter Jacky Winters – Microeca fascinans pallida. Jacky Winters are widespread across much of Australia apart from where there are no woodlands and are one of the plainer birds in Australia. Jacky Winters are paler in their colouring in the north of Australia compared to the south and flit about as they chase insects making them hard to photograph.

I’ve been dragging my feet on wine reviews here at Booze and Birds for quite some time. Not that I haven’t been searching: by now I have a good backlog of bird-bedecked bottles that I’ve picked up over the last few months, just waiting for the right moment to uncork. My hesitation has been informed as much by a bid for occasional sobriety as by a nagging timidity: not only are beers generally packaged in more modest and manageable amounts than wine, but to be honest, I’m not nearly as wel

It’s all been happening this month. Just when we thought that the beats deserved a quiet month after the exertions of May, they came out with Bushnell’s blazing and gave June both barrels! Honduras , Malaysia and the southern-most bits of South Africa feature large this month with Mike, Duncan and Tom all vying to be MVB for June. Of course we all know it will be Pat… again… , but let them have their fun.
