Came across a brood of these chicks in a nearby National Park. They stay in parental care for up to 9 months, and only 12% of chicks per nest grow to adult due to their susceptibility to disease and poor weather.

I had the exact same experience. My poor level 4s didn’t stand a chance
Gorgeous. Never seen this one before
Thanks for the detailed response. It doesn’t seem like there is a perfect answer here, but it is very important that you and other admins/mods can find some sort of sustainable way to delegate and manage for the long term. We really appreciate what you have done so far
Such a good assist from Salah
Such a good finish
I would love to have more discussion type posts here! And I really enjoy reading these experiances.
My favorite experience is a rather simple one. I have only been birding for a few years now. In my first year of birding, I was along a stream-side path that I knew well, looking to see what birds I could find. Out of the bush beside me popped a white-starred robin, one of the cutest and most beautiful birds I had ever seen. It is a altitude migrant, where it moves to lower altitudes in the winter. It was obviously a colder winter than usual as they were usually found in that area.
The best part about it was how tame it was around we me, and I managed to get a bunch of pictures. I was able to bring my SO to the same area the following day and find it in the same place.
I completely agree. It makes it more sustainable on both sides
I really enjoy wingspan, so I will be keeping a close eye on this one
Surely that isn’t sustainable for you or beehaw? On the one hand, please take care to look after your own best interests. We really appreciate your work, but it shouldn’t come at the expense of your well-being.
On the other hand, if the project is based on full time volunteer work by people who can’t afford to volunteer full time over the long term, surely that is a major risk to the long term viability of the instance?
Still very low, but fantastic that they are on the up. Hope it continues
100% agree. I have no interest in seeing gaming memes.
From the article, other birds then are also attracted to ant eating birds, as they know there will be a food source is there. Really interesting how much of an effect the ant eating birds have on the rest of the bird species
This is really exciting tech. The potential for this is huge, especially when this data is compared with other population estimates, which should get it more accurate. All while being non-invasive to the species.
Yeah. Nature can be brutal. And I think some of us are conditioned to save creatures because of all the unnatural ways humans mess with animals. But you made the right call there, and managed to get a great observation
Nice recommendation! I’ll definitely check it out
Absolutely. I guess that’s why many of us are here.
Interesting. I agree that there are some that make the internet a worse place, but surely we wouldn’t want to close the internet to all the others that could use it for good?
Really interesting article! Most importantly to me, it has spurred some really good conversations.
Personally, I don’t think early web is the answer. Modern web usage has allowed for better accessibility to all ages and types. Content aggregation allows for (but doesn’t guarantee) more views and opinions. There are certainly elements we can get back from the early days, but I think we still need work to find a perfect web
Interesting! I wouldn’t have guessed that, but it makes sense. They have huge feet and walk around their eggs often
