Sleepy Eyes
I just love discovering a gem in my archives. Unlike what many people may think, I am not on safari for the better part of the year. I actually have 3-5 opportunities to go to the bush for periods of between 3 and 8 days every year, depending on leave roster at work, my Wild […]

Bald Eagle Birthday
I have been watching a web cam trained on a Bald Eagle nest in New Jersey every day for almost two months. I let it run all day on my computer desktop at work; the infrequent bursts of activity catch my eye, but it is mostly patient waiting. The nest is in a tree on […]

Sparvuggla plockar…
En sparvuggla försökte plocka kungsfåglar ur ett nät jag stötte den 2 gånger innan jag med hjälp av mesarna som varnade talade om var den satte sig, men sedan blev den fångad och fick en fin ring på sig.

Andalucía has a fantastic wealth of bird species all year round and during the colder winter months in the north of Europe many birds spend months in the south-west corner of this avian paradise […]

The Magical Land of Kutch, India – Birders Paradise – I
Miles and Miles of flat barren cracked land….No trees, no mountains, no streams, just barren emptiness…Imagine that, and you would have imagined paradise. Don’t agree with me, do you? ‘The Little Rann of Kutch’: This barren desolate land is the place to be for bird enthusiasts every winter. I have been visiting and re-visiting this […]

Birds of the Prairie, Part 2
In Part 1 of “Birds of the Prairie”, I highlighted the Northern Harrier (Circus cyaneus), a wonderful bird of our midwestern prairies and marshes. Today’s Part 2 focuses on an equally impressive bird, the Short-Eared Owl (Asio flammeus), a new “life bird” for me. The Short-Eared Owl is no longer a year-round resident of the Missouri […]
