I've had this idea for a new blog on blogspot that I'd like to call something like "Enigmatic species" with as many authors as possible
The idea consists in telling the stories of enigmatic (bird) species and subspecies that are mostly unknown to the world, be it because of their very secretive behaviour, because their range/life traits are unknown or because they are presumed extinct or whatever.
Some examples I was thinking about would be e.g. in no particular order
Andalusian Hemipode
Helmeted Guineafowl ssp sabyi
Bachman's Warbler
Nechisar Nightjar
Turquoise-throated Puffleg
White-eyed River-Martin
Saola (mammal)
I would like to include information on taxonomy, range, identification features, threats/extinction, probability of survival and such
I'd like to know,
A) what you think of that idea,
B) if you have a better and more appealing idea for the blog name,
C) if anybody would like to help me write posts
D) suggestions for (sub)species to be included (I'll attach a file where I'll add your suggestions)
