May delivers one of those amazing times of the year when we’re too busy looking at birds to sit around talking about them. Let’s make this quick… I managed to catch up with many of my favorite spring migrants at most of the usual Rochester hotspots, yet my best bird actually came to me; I stuck my head out of my home office window only to find myself essentially eye level with a Blackburnian Warbler.

Author: Steven Kellam We’re currently in the midst of one of the worst health and economic crisis this country and world has ever seen. That’s the bad news. Organizations are doing their best to navigate this new landscape of layoffs, remote working, canceled events, slowing sales and demand slumps. Some are further along than others, but all can agree that this has been an unprecedented test on how even the most well-prepared companies can cope with a catastrophe. .

I have commented before in my posts that most of our Warblers here in central Mexico never actually warble. This tendency is so marked that the Spanish name for Wood Warblers, Chipe, comes not from their mating songs, but from their typical feeding calls: cheep… cheep… cheep. Still, there are a few notable exception to this rule, even here in Michoacán.

The coronavirus has locked us all in, literally, doing something that was totally unthinkable only a few months ago: it has prevented us from birding abroad! And now we are all dreaming about new destinations to explore, once airports are working again and borders re-open. Only this time, you do not feel like inhaling the same air circling through the plane on a ten hour flight.

Red-tailed Black-Cockatoos have become a regular sight around Broome in recent weeks. They are usually heard before they are seen and call raucously as they slowly move across the sky. The wing beat of the Red-tailed Black-Cockatoo always appears very slow for such a large bird. The biggest flock we have seen in recent weeks has numbered over one hundred individuals, but generally the flocks have been smaller.

It had been a long day. My four-month-old – having received his vaccinations the day before – promptly developed a temperature. Normally we wouldn’t have worried, but these days any sign of a fever is extra stressful. His discomfort made him fussy, which made getting work done nearly impossible until my husband came home from his job at a nearby wildlife management area.

Every week during the COVID crisis has felt like at least a month, but now that we’re deep into May, nobody is complaining. We should all savor this moment, one of the best birding periods of the year, bar none. Even better, May 2020 features as many weekends as a month can accommodate, so live it up!! I’ll be breaking shelter in place for a visit to friends in New York’s Southern Tier.

Author: Christian Bielski COVID-19 has disrupted standard business practices in countless ways. For those fortunate enough and able to work remotely, adjusting brings its own challenges. From coordinating schedules with loved ones to arranging child care, pet care and the ever-important self-care, “business as usual” has radically changed. The challenges of quarantine deepen in sales, where lead-generation from cold calls and emails is essential.

Author: Staff Are you one of the many people who have begun the process of moving their work to their homes due to the COVID-19 pandemic? Naturally, this doesn’t have to be the only reason you’d want to be setting up an office of your own at home. Perhaps you’re looking to start your own freelance career or set up a business that’s small enough (for now) to be run out of your home.

If you’re out in the woods this spring, trying to see the Woodcock (like that below, left) in the evening, doing his skydance, or trying to entice the Virginia rail (like that below, right) out of the cattails in the morning, and after a couple of hours you become impatient, bored with your lack of success, and your rear end is wet and cold from sitting on the ground because you forgot your collapsible stool, and the thought that “there’s always tomorrow” is starting to creep into your head, con

As the peak of spring migration in the northern hemisphere, May is always an exciting but exhausting month for birders in North America. For the last three weeks, I’ve been getting up early every day to spend several hours before work searching for newly arriving migrants at my local patch, waking earlier and earlier each day to beat the sunrise. I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t tiring.
