We have been busy walking the beach and keeping an eye on our local Pied Oystercatchers and the two pairs that laid their eggs earliest for the 2018 breeding season and successfully hatched out their chicks have now lost their chicks to predation. One pair have already returned to the nest site and will no doubt lay a further clutch of eggs in due course.

Author: Jennifer Tomlinson and Alon Leibovich The word “dark” has nefarious connotations, but when it comes to the internet and social media, dark really just means private or anonymous. Dark web and dark social are fairly common, easy-to-understand terms, but what about dark marketing? Have you heard of it? What does it mean? And what impact can it have on your business?

A few years ago, I was invited to give a series of four short lectures, in quick succession, on birds of the Danube River. It was a tree planting event organised by a local NGO, the Supernatural, and groups of volunteers – both adults and kids – were visiting me by the bird tower. At first, everything went smoothly. The second lecture is the same as the first, third… Have I already said this, or did I say that to the previous group?

Midsummer means shorebirding in these parts. Some of you may be stifling a yawn at the very thought of parsing peeps, while others may be thrilled that those little brown beachcombers have finally found your part of the world. Either way, birders gotta bird, so make the most of whatever the season offers. I heard about some extraordinary (for Rochester) shorebirds up at Braddock Bay, but all I earned for my efforts this weekend were a few Semipalmated Sandpipers.

It is summer and I live in Queens. That means it is time to look for shorebirds on the East Pond of Jamaica Bay. And look I did this weekend with visits to the pond on both Saturday and Sunday mornings despite the ferocious mosquitoes that insisted upon a blood donation as the price of admission to the pond. Blood paid, I entered each morning at the south end of the pond, working my way up the east side with the light shining on the pond from behind me.

Ladies and gentlemen, the Silly Season approaches. Parliament takes a summer break and trivial stories fill the slow-news days. For birders, the summer brings the opportunities to pursue alternative interests with little chance of missing anything exciting. Some fill their days with butterflies or dragonflies. This season, I shall mostly be watching trucks!

Here in the Empire State, August’s arrival triggers some predictable reactions: “Aw, summer is almost over.” “Aw, school will be starting any day now.” “Yee-haw, fall migration is starting soon!” OK, we don’t really shout “Yee-haw” in New York, but our profane exclamations are not fit for a family-friendly blog.

Author: Sean Gordon By now, the benefits of using video content in marketing are clear. Research shows that video distributed via social media generates 1,200 percent more shares than text and images combined. On top of that, according to Aberdeen, companies that use video in their marketing campaigns grow revenue nearly 50 percent faster than those that do not.

Author: Raju Vegesna Artificial intelligence is one of the most intriguing technologies of the 21st century?—?perhaps the most. It has the power to reshape the way people live, work and play. It also has the power to fundamentally change the way companies do business. One of the first places its impact will be felt is in the sales department. AI can free salespeople from busywork so they have more time to do what they want to do?

As our re-introduction to living in the US continues, I am sneaking in a bit of birding here and there, especially since our RV is parked so conveniently close to the Billy Frank Jr. Nisqually Delta NWR. I can be there in about 8 minutes, get in a few hours searching and photographing some great birds, and then be back in time to get my rather large list of projects checked off.
