Birders who submit their checklists to eBird likely know that their data may be used to conduct research on avian migration, range, or population. But eBird data is not just for ecologists and ornithologists. It has also been used by researchers from other fields, such as economists. Recently, an interdisciplinary group published a paper using eBird data in the journal Landscape and Urban Planning.

Author: Paul Nolan Editor’s Note: Just as I resolved to live with the unending loop of coronavirus-themed commercials from the Walmarts and Amazons of the world praising their frontline employees (whom they had to be pressured into paying something close to a livable wage), the George Floyd murder and subsequent protests happened. The flood of protesters in the streets was followed by a steady flow of corporate messages expressing solidarity with Black Lives Matter.

It’s hard to write about something other than what’s happening in the USA these trying, change demanding days but I’m going to give it a shot. Because where would we be without birds? Without that particular aspect of life on this planet that keeps an inner fire burning, that keeps us looking for and always finding more beauty. You may need to bird with an open mind and watching eye but look close and even the pigeons flying through human-made canyons can be a source of inspira

One of the many things I did not know about Delhi is that it is the capital city with the second-largest number of bird species (after Nairobi). So when I went there for work last year, I added three days of birding to the trip. Most of the time was spent in and around Sultanpur, a highly recommended bird sanctuary about 50 km from Delhi. But even my hotel in a relatively central area of Delhi – and the crowded park next to it – yielded some nice birds.

Over a decade ago I stumbled upon the first edition of the field guide to the birds of T&T and marveled at the astounding diversity within its pages. I had already been birding for some time, but my photography was poor and my identification skills were abysmal. Not only did I have zero clue that a field guide existed, I also was completely unaware that other birders lived here.

A couple of weeks ago I mentioned the Black Kites breeding around Broome. There have also been Whistling Kites breeding around Broome in recent weeks. It was an overcast day again this last Wednesday and we went bush-walking where we have observed the Southern Boobooks recently. We have been keeping an eye on a Whistling Kite nest that is very high up in a tree.

Those who follow my posts know by now that I love gardening. And I love making my little garden (some 1400 square feet) more attractive to birds. But I would never have imagined how important it would be to my emotional well-being to have a bird-friendly garden during lockdown. There are lots of online sources of information on bird-friendly gardening, but much of this information is oriented towards those who live in temperate climes.

I know we see a lot of New England IPAs here at Booze and Birds. Well, this week’s beer doesn’t quite qualify as one but it’s pretty close: A Beer Named Duck from Mast Landing Brewing Company of Westbrook, Maine is a New England pale ale. Note that that’s “PA” without the “I”, which used to stand for “India” back in the nineteenth century but it’s really nothing more than a meaningless, alphabetical vestige these days.

June brings stability to the experience of birding. Where migration serves up the possibility of both quantity and quality of sightings, the seasons between passages promise the birds you expect and little more. Get to know your local residents… you’ll be spending the next few months with them! Corey and I are both staying local but still hoping for unusual sightings.

Author: Leeatt Rothschild Younger employees are committed to the issues they’re passionate about. Millennials are now the largest group in the workforce , and like their Generation Z coworkers, they care deeply about environmental and social causes. They expect their employers to care, too. According to a survey from management consulting firm Korn Ferry, 63% of millennials said the primary purpose of businesses should be improving society instead of generating profit.

This was the month we (in the northern hemisphere) had all been waiting for, but what a strange month May 2020 has been. Normally it is the month of migrants and summer visitors, but who has been out to greet them or wave them on their way? The restrictions were relaxed slightly during the month which has allowed the beats to venture outdoors again, blinking in the bright sunshine of spring.
