The Scarlet Pacific of Costa Rica

10,000 Birds

The Crocodile Bridge on the Tarcoles River is a strange place. Cars stopped at the bridge itself, people walking – not just along the narrow sidewalks, but across the lanes… Abelardo Benavides, our guide, explained that there are up to a hundred American Crocodiles along one kilometre of the river underneath us. Yet, as a team participating in a bird race, we had our schedule, to appear at the lodge at 6.30 pm.

San Juan De La Costa

10,000 Birds

Traveling north of La Paz, Mexico, the terrain starts to look very much like an old John Wayne Movie. Box canyons, long arroyos, and rolling desert vistas, accented with several different kinds of cactus. This, all bordered by the crystal clear waters of the Sea of Cortez. This diversity makes for a very unique birding experience. One where you get to enjoy the many different local desert birds, right along side the birds that make the warm salt waters they home.

Killingholme Haven Pits revisited

10,000 Birds

On September 13th we made a decision to go over to the UK to spend time with Mum and enjoy all that an English October has to offer in the way of birds. Having returned to the UK after an absence of twenty two years last year it would not be quite as overwhelming this year, because we had the European birds fresh in our heads once again! Mum walks daily and is very familiar with the birds in the surrounding area both through observation and by following various websites and is an excellent birdi

Dipper

10,000 Birds

I was working under a misapprehension to start off with. After receiving the advice, “Try looking from the lock bridge below the weir” I was expecting a scene with mill races and canal boats being raised against flow and gravity. The lock bridge over the River Wye proved to have nothing at all to do with the Industrial Revolution of 18th and 19th century Britain, but was obviously popular in its own way with sweethearts visiting the quaint Derbyshire village of Bakewell.

What You Should Know Before Opening a European Office

Sales and Marketing Management

Author: Deirdre Moran, VP of Emerging Technologies, IDA Ireland The advent of online sales has certainly upended the traditional model of selling high-tech products but doing business over the internet only goes so far.

10,000 Birds

With today being Black Friday, I thought it would be fitting to offer a foil to the day’s frenzied consumption and consumerism by showcasing a relatively new brewery with a stated commitment to more ecologically-responsible brewing. Named for one of America’s most melodious songbirds, Hermit Thrush Brewery of Brattleboro, Vermont brews a range of sour beers that have gained as much attention for their quality as for the conscientious methods employed in making them.

Agreeing To Disagree May Work at the Thanksgiving Table, But Not in Business

Sales and Marketing Management

Author: Michelle Huff and David Satterwhite Ahh, Thanksgiving, the holiday of turkey and stuffing, pumpkin pie, football games, cozying up by the fire… and praying that Grandpa Joe and your brother Lucas don’t get into it over politics or some other divisive topic. Most families are likely to adopt an “agree to disagree” policy in an effort to keep discord off the festive table.

Best Bird of the Weekend (Third of November 2017)

10,000 Birds

We’re heading into a hurricane of holiday obligations and celebrations. For many, the third weekend of November serves as the last moment of true relaxation of the calendar year. Hopefully, we all made the most of it! I ran up to Lake Ontario on Sunday despite some major northwestern winds. The wicked waves drove Long-tailed Ducks into the calm of the inlet and most other seaducks away from shore.

Where Are You Birding This Fourth Weekend of November 2017?

10,000 Birds

Happy day of gratitude to all. If you partake of the traditional Thanksgiving repast, be sure to bone up on your thrilling turkey facts and history. Then be thankful that nobody at the table will be as knowledgeable (or pedantic) as you! My family looks forward to extending our streak of holidays at home, but I will be on the road enough for a chance at some spanking winter species.
