“In all honesty, being that this is near a Burger King entrance, aren’t the birds better off?”

For those in the Twin Cities area next week, we are having a book launch for my newest book 1001 Secrets Every Birder Should Know on May 7 from 7 pm – 8:30 pm. And I’m super excited because it will be at Glam Doll Donuts! These ladies make super tasty donuts! [...] 
While in the Rio Grande Valley, my friend Marci asked if there were any birds I needed. I don’t really have any lifers to get there but I said, “I’d like some quality time with a caracara.” She smiled slyly and said, “I think I know a way to do that.” I’ve seen crested [...] 
I love all of you. When I send out a challenge, you try your best. I wish I could give away a Crossley Guide: Raptors to everyone, but alas, like the immortal Highlander, there can be only one. So, I present my favorite and the overall winner of the Crossley Contest (see the original plates [...] 
Man, if anyone get’s that reference in the title, we must be of similar ages. This is mostly a post to let everyone know that yes the blog is still active and I am currently deciding the winner of the Crossley Contest. In less than a week I have been on two coasts of the [...]

Ah yes, as a pro photographer, I can see how you would think that minor bit that’s out of focus is an [...] I know a lot of you are going to be checking today to find out who won my spotting scope. There were A LOT of entries–over 500! The winner will be announced to day, but most likely not until the evening. 
Just a quick reminder that you still have time to enter my spotting scope giveaway contest–just a couple of days left. I sent off my scope to Swarovski to get it checked out and make sure it’s in all top working condition for whoever wins. Perhaps I wasn’t quite ready to let it go. [...] |
