We were provided with a Heat Storm heater in exchange for our honest review. All opinions are our own. You may be wondering why we would be reviewing a space heater on a pet blog, but we have a very.

Where Are You Birding This First Weekend of March 2018?

10,000 Birds

In the Northern Hemisphere, we celebrate March as the month that comes in like a lion–especially in my neck of the woods–and goes out like a lamb. Birdingwise, that sequence works in reverse. Many areas around the world are seeing some early movement now, but the grand parade of migration picks up speed and mass as the month progresses. I hope you enjoy every minute of this month’s birding.

3 Secrets to Setting Sales Meetings with the C-Suite

Sales and Marketing Management

Author: Mike Schultz, President, RAIN Group Breaking through and setting sales meetings with C-suite buyers is tough. They’re off-the-charts busy, bombarded with sales messages, and gatekeepers keep them well insulated. Yet, many sellers are successful in breaking through and setting initial sales meetings with the C-suite. In a recent RAIN Group Center for Sales Research report , we asked buyers how they prefer to be contacted by sellers and what influences their decision to connect with some s

Best Bird of the Weekend (Last of February 2018)

10,000 Birds

February may not last as long as other months, but much happens from a phenological perspective in just 28.25 days. Have you recognized how different your immediate surroundings are compared to the beginning of the month? All manner of spring species are turning up in the Finger Lakes region, but I’m still working on winter stragglers, which makes a self-found Iceland Gull my favorite of this weekend.

Shorebirds and Sea Snakes

10,000 Birds

Have you ever wondered what happens when a sea snake comes ashore and there are shorebirds present? Usually when a sea snake comes ashore it is not very well and unlikely to survive, but birds are partially curious and partially cautious! On this particular occasion the shorebird flock was mostly Greater Sand Plovers with a few Red-necked Stints among them.

3 Ways Customer Data Can Increase Workplace Efficiency

Sales and Marketing Management

Author: Judi Hand Contact center employees have one aim: using the information at their disposal to solve a customer’s problem. Companies provide these workers with data, contact history, service history, and so on to help them answer whatever questions the customer asks. But companies focus so much on the relationship between customers and data that they often ignore how smart data practices affect employees.

Week four: We wrap up our stay in the US.

10,000 Birds

The end of this rather long road trip finds us here in Puyallup, Washington which is just south of Seattle. It seems like the farther the north we go, the colder, and wetter, and a whole lot snowier it gets! We pulled into the RV park next to the Washington State Fairgrounds on Saturday afternoon, and it promptly started snowing! Given the number of countries we will be visiting in the next few months, there are still quite a few logistics that need to be attended to before we can just jump on a

The Great Bustard Search is On (2)

10,000 Birds

I woke up at 5 am, a good two hours before the sun (and I really hate to be up before the sun). And I had a 100 mile drive ahead of me through the… raining snow? Snowing rain? Fortunately, there was no ice. I was heading to the international Great Bustard count on St. Valentines. The idea behind is simple, some birds may move and if counted within a week or a month, double counting is almost guaranteed.

Setting a Record that No One Cares About

10,000 Birds

It was almost a month ago that I wondered how many species of ducks, geese, and swans could be found in my home borough of Queens in a single day this winter if I really put forth the effort. I decided that twenty-four would be the likely result, with twenty-seven possible and thirty if everything went amazingly well. I did a dry run with my friend Seth eight days ago, on 18 February, and in our half-day of birding we knocked off twenty-four species and that was with only one scoter species spot

Review: North on the Wing by Bruce M. Beehler

10,000 Birds

I have to confess that it took me some time to warm up to Bruce M. Beehler’s North on the Wing. Edwin Way Teale, from whom Beehler drew the inspiration for his project, has never been my favorite of the old-school nature writers. Moreover, Beehler – or his editors – made certain stylistic choices in terms of organization and typesetting that I found distracting.
