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.

The Internet Bird Collection needs your help!

A bird that is quite common in the southeast does not have a video (gasp!) The Internet Bird Collection  is a storing house for videos of birds all over the world. I view the videos quite often because not only does it aid in identification, but they are just plain fun to watch.

I was rather surprised to find that there were no videos on New Mexico’s state bird, the Greater Roadrunner. I have been in roadrunner country on three different trips and have seen them each time. On our most recent trip to Texas, I did not own a video camera (which I do now) but could have captured some great video as we had several roadrunners next to us on the side of the road.

Greater Roadrunner

If you have a video of a Greater Roadrunner, check out the Internet Bird Collection and see about adding it!

    I wish that I had some video of roadrunners when I was growing up they were always by my house in Arizona, but not so much in the last few years its sad.
