Still chasing rarities in SE Arizona

10,000 Birds

As we march ever closer to the end of 2019, I continue to marvel at the number of birds that pass thru, or reside in this relatively small area. After an extensive year of travel in 2018, I have mainly focused on Pima County and the Tucson area for my birding. The early part of the year found me learning my way around, and meeting some incredible people.

5 Things Your Sales Reps Are Complaining About

Sales and Marketing Management

Author: Giles House Whether it be too many emails or not enough snacks in the kitchen, everyone has a set of pet peeves in the workplace. Salespeople, as a profession, are certainly not immune. From manual CRM updates, to uninspired training programs or hard-to-find content, the more roadblocks to seamless sales, the more staff becomes demoralized. That, in turn, leads to greater sales rep churn.

Best Bird of the Weekend (Third of October 2019)

10,000 Birds

If the timing of Global Big Day means anything, this weekend saw massive birding excitement all over the world. Obviously, your experience may have diverged from the norm. How did it go for you? Rochester did host a really rare and improbable vagrant this weekend, but I missed it. My consolation prize was a large raft of American Coots. Corey got out birding for awhile on Sunday and while he didn’t find the rarity he was hoping to see he still enjoyed a nice autumn morning in the midst of

Valravn Wines: Sonoma County Old Wine Zinfandel (2015)

10,000 Birds

In our times, it seems foolish to be fearful of birds. It’s an hopeful point of view, perhaps, but I like to think that these days, most people are enlightened enough to consider even the most foreboding flock of vultures circling overhead, or an owl giving a momentarily unnerving call in the dark woods at night, as nothing more than the wonderful living creatures they are, simply going about their natural lives in the wild.*.

Embrace the familiar

10,000 Birds

We are all guilty of concentrating on the exotic and sensational to the exclusion of “trash birds”, but occasionally something mundane, or close to home has the ability to make us catch our breath. It might be the setting. Perhaps it’s the light. Maybe the character of the individual makes it stand out from the rest of its ordinary family.

A Wild Thrush Chase

10,000 Birds

Early Friday afternoon I checked my personal email on my phone while I was at work. And was I ever dismayed to see that Eric Miller, Queens birder-extraordinaire , had managed to find another amazing rarity for my home borough, a Varied Thrush. Why did what would be a new bird for my Queens list dismay me? Well, I had to stay at work. And after work I had to pick up my son from school and by the time I had to pick him up it would be too late to fight traffic all the way to the Alley Pond Environ

Where Are You Birding This Final Weekend of October 2019?

10,000 Birds

We’ve hit that part of October where bats hold more fascination. Good thing that Halloween hits just as migration activity seems to fall off a cliff. Still, don’t believe that the only possible treats in your near future have to be accompanied by the threat to tricks. Late October often sees oddball vagrants popping up where you’d least expect them.

Oh, the things you’ll see!

10,000 Birds

I have written six posts in the last two weeks, in preparation for a long-awaited month-long vacation. (We will be finishing up that trip when this post appears.) After that forced march, I decided to relax and share with you some of my favorite photos from my five years of birding with a camera. Some of these photos have birds in them, but some do not; and they are in no particular order.

Why Messaging Is Great for Customer Loyalty Programs

Sales and Marketing Management

Author: Tobias Goebel Customer loyalty programs are a critical marketing tool for many businesses, and it’s clear to see why: they reward return customers, provide touchpoints to drive sales, and help provide insight into customer experience and behavior. But, despite these benefits, many businesses implementing loyalty programs fall behind when it comes to communication, resulting in missed opportunities to increase customer loyalty and drive sales.

Birds of Cambodia Review

10,000 Birds

A holiday in Cambodia? With 600+ bird species and a two-week trip with possibly a 250 species-list (the best sites are in the northwest and west of the country), my answer is a definitive “yes”. Unlike some competitors whose field guides noticeably vary in quality, Lynx has set its own high standards and sticks to them, making every new edition something to look forward to.
