This time of year is a bit slow. Migratory season is coming to an end and nesting season isn’t quite here yet. A lot of what is coming through my feeds looks all the same to me and it’s a bit uninspiring some days.
Are there any birds or topics you’d like to hear about?
You want more rare birds? There isn’t always much to say about them, since there aren’t many photos or facts, so I don’t always cover them much.
Got any anatomy or physiology questions? I like reading about flight, digestion, respiration, etc but most of you seem to enjoy more lighthearted things than technical, but I’m sure some of you have questions.
Is there just some particular owl you’d like to see more of? I usually post new things, but if you just want to see more of something special, I can browse the owl archives. Or is there a part of the world you’d like to know about. South America and Australia I’d say are the least covered recently.
Let me know!
The one owl discovery I shared was such a great story. I think it was the guy just heard a bird around he’d never heard before and chased it until he found it, and it was a brand new owl!
I know for some others I’ve shared some details and photos of their biomes. Ones like the Cloud Forest Pygmy and the Chaco Owl gave mystical sounding names, and while these aren’t hard to encounter (I’ve seen a Chaco Owl!) their names aren’t so obvious to most of us because they’re named after where they’re from.
I did like you said and said where the Cloud Forest and the Chaco Plateau were and talked about what type of climate and elevation they were and added some photos so people could visualize it.
I even enjoy doing that for some of the historic looking European places or spots in the Southwest USA since even those of us that are American or European haven’t seen many of these spots. Glad to know you all are enjoying that as well.
