    Suriname birds

    A friend of mine took these photos of birds in Suriname. I suppose the first is a Blue-Grey Tanager, but how about the other two? ;)

    Catching/trapping of moths/butterflies

    Thanks for the info. I must say that I find it unconscionable to kill something just to be able to say that you've seen it; "absolute certainty" or not! Imagine if we did that with birds! ;)

    Catching/trapping of moths/butterflies

    I'm just curious if trapping moths/butterflies invariably means killing them in the process, or do some/any of them get released? :smoke:

    Petition Against Ridiculous Ticket Price in Indonesian National Park

    This is pure madness |>:(| but I think you should publicize and promote this campaign against the new fees with the local Indonesian public too ! Shame :-C

    Help protect house martin homes (RSPB)

    Thanks for the article. I can't believe how anyone in their right mind would want to destroy a House Martin's nest. :-C

    Laser pointers

    So what if you don't get to see a bird ?. Birding is supposed to be an enjoyable hobby, not a selfish practice of extreme vanity. I see birding as a lifelong adventure of discovery about birds, and in any discovery one can miss out on certain stuff. I think even pointing a light near or around...

    Why is a Water Rail called a Water Rail (serious question)

    In answer to your second question. I think it's to do with the sound they make. To rail: is to complain about something in an angry way. :smoke:

    Common Swifts in winter

    Saw them again on a couple of occasions and indeed as Nutcracker suggests they are Pallids. They didn't call but the lighter colour was pretty evident. I wonder if their status is changing from a wandering day feeder and becoming closer to being a wintering/resident ??? !.

    world list apps

    What are the differences between the "free" and the "premium" versions of Bird Journal ? besides the $49.99 per year !. For instance, the "World Wide" feature seems to be available only in the paid version, is that correct ?
