• It’s not a bad photographer, it’s a bad person

  
  Chuqui 3.0 — Authority: 419
  This seems to come up about once a year among the birders — bad behavior by a  bird phoographer. I wrote up my thoughts on this, since I live in all three worlds (birder, photographer of birds, and list admin to both), and decided I’d turn it into a blog post so I can point to it next time this comes up. The ...

  Penelopedia: Nature and Garden in Northfield, MN — Authority: 116
  At lunchtime today my friend Mary and I followed the bike path along the east bank of the Cannon River behind the co-op, through Riverside Park, under the highway, over the new pedestrian/bike bridge, and down the path toward Sechler Park, behind the Malt-O-Meal plant. It was the first time Id crossed the new bridge ...

  Chuqui 3.0 — Authority: 419
  It’s fall, and the Cranes and Geese are returning to California for the winter. This weekend is the Lodi Crane Festival , which if you’re at all curious about this birdwatching stuff would be a great way to get introduced to birding and these gorgeous birds. There seems to be a lot of activity already at Isenberg ...

• As October Flies By

  
  On the Bird Trail — Authority: 91
  Bad bird-blogger, I havent updated for over a month. To keep it brief mid-October we had our first big trip to Spurn. Not a classic day despite a favourable easterly from the sea, a netted Raddes Warbler released as the Anchor pub car park made for a very cheap life tick (not sure it really counts for that matter), ...

• Creationists and Birding

  
  Migrations — Authority: 416
  Perhaps in an effort to stir the pot so to speak, Corey at 10,000 Birds raised an interesting question a few days ago: Can Creationists Be Birders? The short answer is “Of course!” For most birders, the appreciation of birds does not extend much beyond the aesthetic beauty of the birds and the ability to match a ...

• With No Continuity Whatsoever….

  
  Life in the Bristolwood — Authority: 127
  Here are some photos from today. And a couple from before today! Ben requested I wash some laundry for him today, and since I am trying to give our poor well a little recovery time, I ended up going to Canadaigua to do his (three) loads.  I was washing all of his bedding, including two pillows.  I was going to ...

  Life in the Bristolwood — Authority: 127
  Call me what you want….I have been “caged” too long with not one, nor two, but now three sick human beings! Yes, last night, Mark announced he was not feeling well at all.  Then, this morning,  Ben got up and asked me how I felt.  When I said, fine, he basically told me to run like the wind and don’t ...

• California Bird Houses

  
  Catherine Sherman — Authority: 112
    The housing market is good for birds in some special neighborhoods in California.  I love bird houses.  I don’t know how practical some of these are or whether birds actually live in them, but they certainly are cute.  After seeing these, I’m inspired to build my own.  I’m not very handy with a saw ...

• Data apps take off with Beaky Birdsearch

  
  The Guardian - guardian.co.uk — Authority: 982
  Beaky Birdsearch gives an at-a-glance snapshot of birds in the UK. Do you have an idea to turn dry data into dazzling apps? Fans of the long-tailed tit should move to Wales or the west of England for the best chance of spotting one. I know this because Ive been playing with Beaky Birdsearch , a webtool built by ...

  Chuqui 3.0 — Authority: 419
  I and the Bird is logging a lot of frequent flyer miles these days. In the past two months alone, we’ve peregrinated from New York to India to New Mexico to Minnesota, some odd geographic choices to be sure. Believe it or not, we’re back to India, courtesy of Thomas of Walk the Wilderness. The return trip is ...

• Binoculars Accessories

  
  Best Binoculars — Authority: 108
  Unlike most gadgets, the accessories made for binoculars are more of a necessity rather than serving as fancy add ons. When it comes to binoculars, there is an adage that holds true: “Take care of the tool and the tool will take care of you”. It is not only important to invest in a good pair but also in the ...

• Feeder Birds, Late October

  
  Penelopedia: Nature and Garden in Northfield, MN — Authority: 116
  A pair of cardinals were trying to get at the seed on the floor of the caged feeder a few days ago. Cardinals want their seed served on a flat surface, not from a hanging feeder. Were going to look into some kind of platform feeder, perhaps placed right outside the living room window. Above is the male, resting on top ...
