I'm finally getting caught up on some reading and came across this article in the Defenders of Wildlife wildlife. We tend to talk about penguins and polar bears, but these guys are important too. I'm very proud of supporting Defenders because I think they do great work and they have a really good magazine too.

We have loved seeing places that few people ever get to see, and learning about the interesting wildlife that lives there. We loved seeing penguins, whales, polar bears, and wolves. We loved it when the penguins jumped out of the water, and right onto a camera man! Some of it is quiet funny as well.

But as I walked around my local wildlife refuge seeing all my local birds for the first time it occurred to me I’d fallen into a competitive listing trap. We have only two landbird migrants, both cuckoos and both hard to see. I couldn’t beat people who lived on continents, so why bother trying?

Even so, he still knew many species and always yearned to learn about the wildlife he encountered. Not about the City of Brotherly Love, not about the Steelers or Penguins, but about forests with deer, birds, and elbow room.

Duck hunters and wildlife officials alike worry that the spill will affect both hunting season and migration. While penguins who live in Chicago’s Shedd Aquarium don’t have to worry about oil spills or other environmental disasters, they have problems of their own. Or, as penguins do, waddle.)

The Ross Sea is the most productive stretch of water in the Southern Ocean, teeming with large predatory fish, whales, seals, penguins and other animals that form the last intact marine ecosystem on Earth.

I was a bit sad, too, that we had annoyed the owl enough that it felt it had to strafe us … my normal MO is to avoid stressing out wildlife. Final choice is African (aka Jackass) Penguin because I had such a wonderful time watching these creatures at Betty’s Bay and Boulders Beach. Donna’s BBOTY – an African Penguin.

Cochran followed thrushes for 34 years and is now considered one of the founders of wildlife telemetry (instead of patenting his radio transmitters, he gave away his knowledge), but was a scientific outsider for much of his life.
