    A few places to stay in East Africa.

    Hi. I've been away from this forum for a while and according to the head corrections officer at my previous accommodation , I've been rehabilitated. Ready for the world. I'd like to take my faithful wife to East Africa. Stay at a few spots. Not the fancy spots. Places with hyenas and...

    A great camera.

    Just returned from photographing hummingbirds in Ecuador. Bought a Lumix FZ200 and got on the plane. Wonderful rig. Easy to learn and awesome results. Just thought I would post this if anyone is interested in a bridge camera.

    Still Rufous..........

    Just wanted to document Rufous Hummers here (Chico) on this date. It's been some dry years. Valley homes irrigate and have feeders.

    Best Ecuador Hummingbird Lodges.

    Went 13 years ago. Really a honeymoon we never had - since I worked in Alaska back in the day.... Loved it (Ecuador). Made friends there. Saw 57 species. Anyway - just thought I would post this. Going on December 10th for 3 weeks. Will stay in Quito a bit (especially for Christmas) with...

    Bridge camera question.

    After 14 years - my wife and I are heading back to Ecuador. Last time - I had a slow camera, slow film, slow lenses, and a heavy tripod. I thought it was fun. Still do. Since then ------ I've really gotten to enjoy digital, 'Point & Shoots'. The kind that fit in a pocket. I've gone through...

    New Jersey!!!

    I'm from - but have been gone for 30 years. Been spending much time of late... I'm amazed at the birds. Truly. Folks are great too. Pizza, subs (not the German ones), new residents (from all 'round the world), music (more 'Jersey' than ever), and honestly - Civic pride. Also, pride in all...

    Cali Rufous

    Had my 1st Rufous on Feb 18th - which is not all that odd. There seems to always be ones that streak north. This year though - they have been consistent since that date. Prior to our current (State-wide) rains there really was no precip in Southern California. I kinda' think it's related...

    4 kinds.

    I presently have 4 species. Not the numbers though. Still fun.

    Death in California.

    Had a Scrub Jay catch and killer a Cedar Waxwing yesterday. Shocking! Other friends report similar events of late (really). I guess peanuts aren't enough.
