In terms of migration excitement, June feels like the party you arrived at just a little late. Everyone still seems to having a ball, but the merriment isn’t flowing quite as freely as it was before. Live it up, though, because, with a few weeks, the migration party may really be over! I’m prepping for a big birding bonanza in Honduras (!!!!

After a very long day of 7 hours of driving, 11 hours flying and then 9 hours more driving, we have arrived at our temporary home here in South Africa. This will act as our base for the next 20 days. The house is a four bedroom, four bath two story, with a deck running around three sides of the upper story, great for wildlife viewing. So far we have seen Impala, Duiker, Greater Kudu, Mongoose, Zebra and warthogs around the neighborhood, and yard.

The first rule about birding is that there are no rules for birding. Look at a bird with the intent of identifying it or just watching it because you want to, and that’s it, that’s birding. Some who partake in the hobby, the passion, the possible obsession might beg to differ but they would be wrong because you just can’t argue with such an easy, basic, and honest definition.

By the time you see this in the United States, I will have had a full week to explore this amazing area, and the wildlife that calls this home. The schedule is a bit daunting, as we are up before 5 AM to get to the gate for the 6AM opening. We are on the go until usually around 1:30 give or take a herd of zebras blocking the road. Lunch has been at the Lower Sabie camp, where there is a pretty incredible view of the Sabie River, and the many sand bars that form in front of the restaurant.

In North American birding this week, excitement over what might forever be known as “The Checklist” – a stupefying spring migration report from Tadoussac, Quebec highlighted by a truly astronomical count of over 700,000 wood-warblers – quickly gave way to the equally astonishing news of an apparent Tahiti Petrel appearing before a pelagic trip in the waters off North Carolina – a potential record not only for both the state (“Tarheel-ti Petrel”, anyone?

Last week I mentioned the steady increase of Plumed Whistling-Ducks to the Broome Poo Ponds and that they now number in the thousands. As the land starts to dry out the Plumed Whistling-Ducks head for remaining fresh water around Broome and the ephemeral lakes are good locations for them to move to, but the Poo Ponds are also ideal. Although the Poo Ponds are right in town they are also close to the Broome Golf Course and the grass at the Golf Course is watered via the recycled water from the Po

Author: Kostas Chiotis Be honest: what’s the first thing you do in the morning? Probably, you silence the alarm, curse the gods that invented work, and check your email and social media updates from your mobile device. We live in an overly connected world. Today’s consumer is glued to the smartphone. Studies suggest that young adults use up to three different devices every day and many feel naked if they leave the house without their phones.

Merchandising folly 1 – Conservation 0. The Miami-Dade County Commission approved development of ‘the largest shopping mall in North America’ with a vote of 9-1 last week. While there’s nothing inherently noteworthy about another super complex, this one will sit in uncomfortable proximity to the Everglades National Park. It has been my privilege to bird in the ‘Glades – the largest US wilderness east of the Mississippi River.
