If you had your choice of one bird family to pursue, to seek out and observe and photograph and kvell over, which one would you choose? It’s a question I’ve occasionally pondered, and one that doesn’t draw on one’s intellect as much as one’s spirit–there are simply certain birds, and by extension bird families, that you feel drawn to, that are meaningful in ways that aren’t always clear.

Vertical target marketing is having a moment (again), but the amount of success companies have from targeting specific verticals will depend on the resources they are willing to invest. The post Getting Back to Basics With Verticalization appeared first on Sales & Marketing Management.

With any project or investment we’re involved in, the topic of beneficiaries always surfaces some way or the other. Who is going to benefit aside from the original investor? For me, as a birder, a naturalist, and a general lover of all things natural – the ideal beneficiary is nature. Any project I am involved in, the overarching goal is for nature to benefit.

Snowy Egrets like to keep their distance. Normally the slender, fairy-feathered shorebirds are shy and avoid the humans who encroach on their territory. But a small colony of them have made an exception for Elton Reed, who has fished off Chincoteague Island, Virginia for almost five decades. Initially wary, the birds came to accept his quiet presence as he checked his traps and floats.

In another year when time stands still when you are not allowed to move freely around Australia or overseas some things happen like clockwork. Well, not quite like clockwork, because this year one pair of Pied Oystercatchers on Cable Beach laid their first clutch of eggs a bit earlier than normal. This year the first clutch was laid at the end of May and this is the first time we have had eggs laid in May along Cable Beach since 2000.

Tianmushan is a mountain in Zhejiang province – not very high at about 1500 meters, but of course offering very different birds from flat Shanghai (where confusingly, the highest mountain with a height of 100 meters is named Tianmashan – the difference between the a and the u is one of 1400 meters in height. Gives you an idea why it is difficult to learn Chinese).

Flaming June is busting out all over. Insects were held back by weird spring weather, but now the warmth returns and the birds are feasting on the late stirring bugs. June saw 8 beats get their birding boots on and share 90 checklists for your pleasure. Between them, they found 389 species in 5 countries. The year list remains low, at 1425 but the life list was bolstered this month by Donna’s Antillean Nighthawk and has reached 4069. 1 Little Tinamou – Crypturellus soui 2 Black-belli

Only two weeks ago, I commented that I had seen all but two of the wrens that can normally be found in Michoacán. The ones I had not yet seen were the Rock Wren , and the Sedge Wren. Oddly enough, only a couple of days before that post came out, a member of a regional birders’ chat had posted a photo of a wren seen on the edge of the Morelia area (near one of my favorite sites), to confirm that it was, indeed, a Sedge Wren.

The Kea – New Zealand’s enigmatic alpine parrot. It may seem strange that I am choosing to write a video review in one of my first ever blogs. It is also strange, perhaps, that the subject of this short excellent video series, is not from Australia but from the true ‘land of birds’ across the ditch from Australia – New Zealand or Aotearoa.

While many Americans celebrated a certain vision of independence this past weekend, I like to think that any holiday, vacation, or sequence of at least a few unencumbered hours presents the most authentic celebration of freedom. And what symbolizes freedom better than birds if not the liberty and choice to look at them? My holiday weekend took me to a part of the Southern Tier of New York where I can count on seeing both old-fashioned Fourth of July bunting and plentiful Indigo Buntings.
