When for whatever reason you may no longer be much of a walker, that shouldn’t be a reason not to be a birder. A car is the obvious solution. When it’s sunny, you have the shade you want; when it’s cold, you can turn on the heating; when it’s windy, you can close the windward window. And you can also use your car speakers to play that owl call. What sort of a car would be the best choice?

Author: John Larson How many times has one of your customers approached you with an issue or a problem? For instance, “I purchased this product from you and it does not work.” Or, “I thought this product had feature X, but I found out it doesn’t and I want to return it.” Or possibly, “You told me my order would arrive on Wednesday and it came on Friday.”.

The stage is set for two rival gangs to fight over coveted territory: a grassy lawn bordered by a dirt road and a smattering of trees, surrounded by grassland and marsh. At first glance, the Sandhill Cranes seem to be at an advantage. They’re taller, after all, with larger wingspans and sharper beaks. On the other hand, the Canada Geese have both safety in numbers and famously aggressive personalities.

There are two kinds of bird names in this world. There are names assigned by a single person at a single point in time, including all the binomial scientific nomenclature and most of the common names that involve the bird being named after someone’s friend, sponsor, or sister-in-law. And there are folk names, which often sound super-weird, disproportionately involve onomatopoeia, and invite embarrassing folk etymologies.

I know that some of you have faithfully following along on our adventure this year, and might have noticed that there was now “Week 27” I am afraid this week was dedicated to getting ready for the road trip that will carry us thru the bulk of the balance of 2018. Our 5th wheel needed some maintenance work, a couple of small repairs and a couple of major upgrades.

The summer has been glorious in the UK this year. Sun, sun and more sun. How marvellous it was for a couple of weeks, but we are not used to stability in our weather and quickly get bored. It has been said that the greatest thing about the British weather is that if you don’t like it, all you have to do is wait a few minutes and it will change.

Every weekend possesses its own charms, but the ones that extend into the regular work week inspire the most excitement. We Americans certainly love our Labor Day weekend, despite conflicting views about labor itself. Just remember that this weekend presents the last fashionable chance for your summer whites, although I don’t recommend that if you’re birding!

The end of August, which often seems synonymous with the end of summer, evokes an entire spectrum of emotion, from sweet to bitter. Birders, however, approach that wistful moment with more excitement than, say, school children. The end of August signals the beginning of another great global migratory movement. I’d trade local sweet corn for that!

Last weekend we were camping in the bush at Langi Crossing on the banks of the Fitzroy River not far from Broome. There are always plenty of birds to observe and last weekend was no different. There is ample shade for a quiet weekend watching the birds and crocodiles and we have visited Langi Crossing several times over recent years to have a break from the coast.

Author: Chris Westfall It’s no secret that the richest man in modern history, Jeff Bezos, has outlawed PowerPoint for all employees at Amazon. Replacing the venerable Microsoft product with multi-page memos may or may not be a future-proof strategy, but it’s now the law at Seattle’s largest company. At Amazon, meetings begin with a narrative-style memo (no bullet points) that’s handed out to all participants.

Author: Jason Jordan In a previous blog post , I recounted the story of a coach who shouted absolutely useless advice to a team of 12-year-old boys who were trying to win the last game in a soccer tournament. More specifically, he shouted: “Come on guys… We really need this one.” Yeah, they already knew that. They already wanted to win the game – probably more so than the coach, for that matter.

Author: RICHARD SMITH, ZS MANAGER. CONTRIBUTORS: STEVE MARLEY AND CHAD ALBRECHT, ZS PRINCIPALS “Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.”. – Confucius. The same can be said for sales compensation. Incentive compensation plans are often far too complex. This complexity is usually the result of trying to make the plan fair or trying to please every stakeholder.

Author: Jason Jordan I was recently at a soccer tournament with my teenaged son. His team had won its first few matches and made it to the semifinals. The stakes were high – win and move up the bracket, or lose and go home. The kids were playing well, but losing by one goal with only a few minutes left in the game. Their coach, whom I know to be a very smart man, then said something that I thought was particularly dumb.

Peeps are the smallest of our Calidris sandpipers or, as Mike has said here on 10,000 Birds : ‘Peeps’ is the birding term used to describe several species of sandpiper of the genus Calidris that are near impossible to tell apart. These small shorebirds all have short legs and similar plumage and frequent mud flats in search of the same food.
