The changing fortunes of Iberian waterbirds

10,000 Birds

Those of us who have lived long enough to see significant changes to bird populations will have personal recollections of this or that species. I’m sure many in Europe will remember a world without Collared Doves (Streptopelia decaocto) but the younger ones will never have experienced a world without these ubiquitous town birds.

how long until my cats get along with new puppy

Reddit Animals

my mom got a saluki puppy and my cats are afraid of him and have retreated to the back of the house and only come out at night when he’s asleep and it’s really making me sad because i don’t really like dogs and want my cats to feel like the house is safe for them when he’s out. I have a flame point x tabby boy who comes out sometimes but the puppy is so energetic that he ends up p **g my cat off and he retreats again.

Some Pittas of South Vietnam

When writing about pittas, even the normally rather reserved HBW sounds more like to a teenage Taylor Swift fan than a neutral scientist: “Elusive jewels of Asian forests, these striking passerines are adorned in some of the purest colors of any bird …” … which is immediately followed by the warning “… yet their shyness makes them invisible to all but the most determined… Source

Goodbye August

10,000 Birds

Goodbye August, I won’t be sorry to see you go. Unless you happen to live near the coast, in which case there are plenty of migrant waders to see, August is pretty much a duff month for birds in England. There’s not much song, many spring migrants have already departed south for their winter quarters, while the majority of residents are moulting, so become shy and difficult to see.

Just Another Pretty Face

10,000 Birds

A pattern seems to be developing this summer, of birds with really striking faces. First there was the Lesser Ground-Cuckoo, a species I had long wanted to see. The perfect views it gave us made the wait well worthwhile. I wrote about this encounter a month ago. The following week, I finally got some great photos of a male Ruddy Duck with its fantastic reproductive blue bill.

Spring in Ontario, Canada, is the time for colour and I love colourful things. The following male birds dazzle, as they strut their stuff for the females. 1. Ruby-throated Hummingbird.

Are there fully white wolves in Eurasia ?

Reddit Animals

When I read about wolves, I always see that fully white wolves are only present in the American arctic (Canada, Greenland and Alaska) and that in general American wolves display a bigger variety of colors than their Eurasian counterparts. There is however an old documentary about Russian/Soviet animals where you can see several fully white specimens as well as some others which are fully black which I did find odd ( [link] the segment about wolves start at around 42:30).

Animal Birthday Party ideas for a young adult?

Hello everyone, I am posting in this sub because I figured y’all could help me out and are animal lovers! I am trying to plan a themed birthday party for my friend (almost 22m) with his roommate. My friend is a zoology major (we go to the same college) so his roommate and I thought of doing something along the lines of animal themed, but obviously anything you search is aimed at children’s parties.

So me and a mate from work found a bird (a crow I think) tied to a tree, its foot was wrapped with fishing line around the branches. No idea how it got there, we took it in the workshop and carefully cut the fishing line.

I saw a brown bear drink another bear's urine

Reddit Animals

Ok so I went to a zoo the other day, and there were two brown bears in an enclosure. One ,which I assume was female, was urinating. Nothing weird about that. But the other bear was drinking it while it was falling. Like when you drink water from a tap, something around those lines. Can anyone explain to me why it did that????

My dog got hurt?

Hi! I was gone for a few days and my mom had to take my dog out. They went on a walk to a lake and she let the dog loose to enjoy and I guess my dog cut its paws on smth? Or maybe she got a sunburn? Whatever it is, it's bugging her and she's licking them and idk what to do. I don't have any money right now to buy any medicine, but I was wondering if pharmaceutical marigold cream would be ok for her paws?
