Robins #1
Robins Lifecycle #1: Robins Lifecycle in Images #1: Every year when the Robins migrate back to Pennsylvania. They like to build nests, throughout my yard. In the images below, they have decided to build, a nest in the Rhododendron Bush. In front of my House. Using my Nikon camera, I was able to get various pictures, through the Robins Lifecycle. From egg to baby Robin, to adult bird. As a freelance, or Hobbyist, I am not a professional photographer. Below is a summary, & a section for […]I just uploaded a new YouTube shorts video of our local matriarch Swainson's hawk flying around. I was quite far away from her so the video isn't very clear. I also had to do some creative 'realigning' of the clips to make it a bit more watchable. Hope you like it!

!!! MIGRATING GEESE DETECTED !!!
(Couldn't actually *see* them in the rain)
But for a while, the sky was filled with their song. The flock must have passed overhead, and faded away to the North..
France Reports #BirdFlu On Two Farms, Loses Disease-free Status
January 2, 2025
"France has confirmed bird flu outbreaks on two poultry farms – the highly pathogenic avian influenza – just days after being officially declared free of the virus, the agriculture ministry said.
"Bird flu has spread across Europe in a seasonal wave linked to #MigratingBirds even though the impact has been less severe than in the United States, where dairy farms across many states have caused tremendous losses causing egg prices to soar. More than 66 people have also been infected with the virus.
"According to French authorities, new cases that have been reported in the northwestern region of Normandy have made the country lose the# HPAI-free status that it had regained last month. Disease-free status for bird flu means no farm outbreaks have been reported for at least a month. The classification can allow trade restrictions from importing countries to be lifted."
