Birding

We love to travel to find new birds and participate in a lot of bird counts. We also created a Guide to Birding Field Guides and host a collection of over 300 birding links from all over the globe.

Conservation

While our main focus continues to be birds, we promote other areas of conservation as well. Conserving land not only benefits wildlife, but is hugely beneficial to people as well.

Outdoors

We love all sorts of outdoor activities, especially hiking and spend a lot of time outside with dogs and horses. We are working to produce more articles on all sorts of outdoor fun!

Photography

Every week we bring you Bird Photography Weekly. We periodically talk about our adventures in digiscoping. Feel free to browse our photo lifelist.

    From 10,000 Birds comes a Red-shouldered Hawk (though we also snuck a Pine Warbler shot into the mix).

    Happy New Year!

    Exotic Purple Swamphens have been so prolific in our area of Florida that they are being exterminated by the Fish & Wildlife Commission. The survivors are quite wary. I just hope that the guys with shotguns can tell them from the Purple Gallinules, as the latter have become less common locally since the shooting started.

    Sharp-shinned or Coopers Hawk…photos….Michelle

    This hawk crashed into our window along with the starling it was chasing. It spent 15 minutes standing on the starling recovering from the window hit before taking the still screaming starling to the front lawn to begin plucking the feathers and eating the bird. This is a young bird as it has yellow eyes and not red eyes as an adult would have.

    I got lucky with a shot of an ordinary house finch taken through my binoculars as it visited one of the feeders in front of our living room window.
