Baby Bird Identification is a comprehensive illustrated guide for distinguishing hundreds of North American bird species in their early stages of life. From the just hatched to the fledgling, Linda Tuttle-Adams walks readers through the process of identifying baby birds that they may encounter in the wild—a first step to ensuring proper care and rehabilitation.
Successful rehabilitation of birds found in the wild requires species-specific attention. But the identification of a baby bird, whether altricial or precocial, may seem overwhelming at first, even to a trained ornithologist. Tuttle-Adams lays out an approachable and systematic method for discerning a baby bird's identity, offering descriptions of telling anatomical and environmental features as well as details of a bird's day-to-day growth.
With over four hundred original watercolor paintings and an illustrated glossary, Baby Bird Identification is an invaluable resource for wildlife rehabilitators, those who find baby birds in their yards or recreational places, and anyone who enjoys watching or studying birds in the wild.

A comprehensive photographic guide to the gull species of the Western Palearctic
Gulls occupy a particularly important place in the world of birds. But because they are notoriously difficult to identify, they have been relatively neglected in the ornithological literature. Gulls of Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East offers the most up-to-date guide for gull identification in Europe and beyond.
With a direct and visual approach, and an abundance of beautiful color photographs, this book provides thorough accounts of all species and subspecies of gulls found in the Western Palearctic. The guide compares similar taxa and addresses the complexities of identifying hybrids. Gulls of Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East will be the standard work for identifying these birds for some time to come.
Richly illustrated with nearly 1,400 color photographs
Thorough accounts of all species and subspecies of gulls found in the Western Palearctic
Up-to-date information for easy and accurate identification of 45 species

Описание: Wild Track is an exploration of birdsong and the ways in which that sound was conveyed, described and responded to through text, prior to the advent of recording and broadcast technologies in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Street links sound aesthetics, radio, natural history, and literature to explore how the brain and imagination translate sonic codes as well as the nature of the silent sound we "hear" when we read a text. This creates an awareness of sound through the tuned attention of the senses, learning from sound texts of the natural world that sought - and seek - to convey the intensity of the sonic moment and fleeting experience.
To absorb these lessons is to enable a more highly interactive relationship with sound and listening, and to interpret the subtleties of audio as a means of expression and translation of the living world.

Описание: The Canada Jay as Canada?s National Bird? presents a convincing argument for the official recognition of the Canada Jay as our national bird by the federal government. With chapters written by several authors, including experts on the species, whimsical poetry, perspectives from all three founding peoples of Canada, many excellent colourful photos and paintings by talented photographers and artists, and a Foreword by none other than Robert Bateman, the book promotes the idea that Canada needs a National Bird and that the Canada Jay best fits the bill. While the bird was proclaimed the winner of the ?contest? run by the Royal Canadian Geographical Society several years ago and despite the fact that many Canadians now consider it to be our national bird, our federal government has yet to recognize it officially. One could not find a more Canadian bird than the aptly named Canada Jay! This clever corvid breeds in every province and territory and its range almost mirrors our country?s borders. It is extremely friendly, often landing on an outstretched palm even without food, and it is among the hardiest of all of our Canadian birds, staying north of the 49th parallel during winter and sometimes incubating eggs at -30 degrees C! It is not hunted or killed for any reason and its popular name, whisky jack, originates from our Indigenous peoples. Best of all, it has not yet been chosen to represent any provinces or territories. Finally, the Canada Jay presents itself as an excellent ?poster child? for our boreal forests, for our national and provincial parks, and for climate change.

Автор: Frederic Keck Название: Avian Reservoirs: Virus Hunters and Birdwatchers in Chinese Sentinel Posts ISBN: 1478006137 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781478006138 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 117000.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: After experiencing the SARS outbreak in 2003, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Taiwan all invested in various techniques to mitigate future pandemics involving myriad cross-species interactions between humans and birds. In some locations microbiologists allied with veterinarians and birdwatchers to follow the mutations of flu viruses in birds and humans and create preparedness strategies, while in others, public health officials worked toward preventing pandemics by killing thousands of birds. In Avian Reservoirs Frédéric Keck offers a comparative analysis of these responses, tracing how the anticipation of bird flu pandemics has changed relations between birds and humans in China. Drawing on anthropological theory and ethnographic fieldwork, Keck demonstrates that varied strategies dealing with the threat of pandemics—stockpiling vaccines and samples in Taiwan, simulating pandemics in Singapore, and monitoring viruses and disease vectors in Hong Kong—reflect local geopolitical relations to mainland China. In outlining how interactions among pathogens, birds, and humans shape the way people imagine future pandemics, Keck illuminates how interspecies relations are crucial for protecting against such threats.

TED SNOWE is a hit man... who isn't. Ted takes "hard-unearned" money from wise guys to rub out their enemies, but instead of providing the requested service, Ted offers his "assignments" two choices: be found dead in the trunk of a stolen Cadillac in an airport garage, or accept a new identity Ted has prepared and then disappear--his own for-profit witness protection program. All select the latter choice, of course, so Ted double-dips and relaxes on the coast of Portugal between jobs. But all is not exactly going according to plan. The love of his life, Beth Palmer Brutto, has left him. His last assignment--birdwatching enthusiast Bob Chance, who embezzled from the wrong folks--is not keeping his head down in his new life. When Bob and his girlfriend are gunned down in front of a large hotel, Ted realizes his clients have discovered his duplicity, and they send a real hit man after him, the aptly-tagged Tony Whack Job, a man handy with an ice pick who idolizes Ted Bundy. Fearing that a similar end awaits Beth as well as his last three "disappeareds," Ted heads home to try and thwart the attacks. To do so, he must run a gauntlet that includes Beth's serial-bride mother, birdwatcher Bob Chance's merry widow, a Ponzi artist, a beer-guzzling cat named Fluffy, and of course, Tony Whack Job. With a dismal pro basketball career behind him, a recent bent for writing bad poetry, and a growing interest in birdwatching, Ted must face these latest challenges as he approaches male-menopausal age-40, thinking that a conscience can be a terrible thing to have.
