Global Big Day (GBD). This biggest day of eBirding kicked off in earnest a few years ago. The idea was to see how many birds could be collectively identified by folks anywhere and everywhere. Go birding, eBird the results and see what happens! People got on board, lots of people got on board and throughout the world. The tourism ministries of some countries leveraged the day to promote birding tourism, some folks wanted to showcase the avian wealth of their country, others went into full Big Day
Author: Cindy McGovern I once worked with someone who couldn’t handle the answer, “no.” It was a lot like dealing with a child. One day I literally saw her stomp, raise her voice and throw a book! She then spent the rest of the day trying to “rally the troops” and get other employees on her side – just to hear someone say she was right and should have gotten what she wanted.
It’s hard to believe the new year is already right around the corner. What better way to ring in 2020 than with one of six unique calendars featuring Australia’s hottest firefighters with rescue cats, dogs, horses, and native animals!
These days, when I have to travel somewhere for business, I try to add a day for birding. Sometimes, this can be surprisingly fruitful, even without leaving the city limits. Despite being crowded, Mumbai is a place worth such an exploration. On a February day this year, I went to three different places there – Bhandup Pumping Station, Borivili NP, and Mahim Nature Park.
Some of my readers may recall that my wife and I went to Spain a few months ago. That was a work trip, although I still managed to find a few mornings to bird. This month we were able to go to Europe again, for our first real vacation in a few years. So you can bet some more birding was in order. An October trip meant many European birds had already flown south for the winter.
October birding can either surprise us or confirm our worst suspicions. How many of you ended this weekend feeling optimistic about your next one? I acted in good faith, checking the last known location of our most recent superstar vagrant fruitlessly before making the long drive to our most auspicious lakewatch site. Lousy winds led to a lousy take, but we did happen upon a raft of waterfowl sheltering from rough weather.
It is always interesting observing the bird-life at Marlgu Billabong in the north of Western Australia. The water levels vary tremendously throughout the year and you cannot always access the area. During the wet season the land is flooded and in coming months it should flood once again. At the beginning of the dry season the water levels are high and the crocodiles are active.

Author: Timo Rein We all have good and bad days. Stephen Curry, star basketball player of the Golden State Warriors, has a field goal shooting percentage of.477 over his career.

Author: Becc Holland Here are the top four scariest horror scenarios to avoid being in your cold outreach so you don’t end up sending your prospects running. Pennywise from “IT” - Clowning around with your prospect too early. AEs, SDRs and BDRs make it a goal to build rapport quickly, but often try to accomplish this through unprofessional means, such as being too casual or silly and sending jokes to prospects.
I was really looking forward to this week’s installment of Birds and Booze. Last night was Hallowe’en, making tomorrow – in some Christian traditions – All Souls’ Day, the annual “Commemoration of All Faithful Departed”. That’s a somewhat formal, euphemistic name, but in Mexico, it’s known as Día de Muertos – “the day of the dead” – which provides a more direct description of this holiday devoted to mourning and veneration of the deceased.
