    Stuffed Birds on Ebay

    Is Harshit mis-spelt? "Sellers need to ensure that they have the necessary government permits to sell these items suggests that eBay has no interest in these permits. Also, if they do have these permits that they are not interested in, then that is fine. Well done eBay. Paul

    Trump administration unwinds Migratory Bird Treaty Act

    I read somewhere that ocean reserve areas set up in New Zealand were fought tooth and nail by local fishermen. Now those same fishermen are their main guardians, as the reserves replenish other areas which they can fish. I don't think the GOP world view can peek much beyond the next profit...

    Tern ID. N. of Sweden.

    Long cap on head, fairly sizeable bill and thick dark trailing edge to underwing suggests common. I think. Paul

    Are Goldfinches much more common this year?

    I think they have become more common over several years in urban environments. Same with long tailed tits. That is just anecdotal though. Paul

    Irish "wildfire" season opens

    When will Irish arsonists be prosecuted I wonder? The Irish Wildlife Trust seems to suggest that paying them off might be one way to go. https://www.msn.com/en-ie/news/world/fire-crews-tackle-gorse-fires-in-wicklow-mountains-as-illegal-burning-of-vegetation-condemned/ar-BB12LBlX?li=BBr5MK2 The...
