Dammit. You're making me learn stuff.

Again.

I had to know about the ovenbird, never heard of it. Having seen a pic of one, I've never seen one live and in person before, and, according to wikipedia's range map, they should be, literally, in my backyard.

I was wondering how they got their name. It's from the shape of their nest. It resembles a kiln, or a dutch oven:

I also came across this.

A pair of House Sparrows has built a nest in a working traffic light on New York's Upper East Side.
I suppose that the warmth generated by the light was one factor in them choosing this site.
The signal appears to be on a pole rather than suspended above the road, so the proximity of pedestrians and vehicles can't have been of too much concern to the birds.

Releasing an ungrateful young moose from barbed wire. About 1:20 he shows why Moose are so dangerous, they're not satisfied to knock you down they want to tap dance on you. I imagine a 1500 pound Bull Moose, or even a 1000 pound Cow Moose, tap dancing on you, might be uncomfortable.




Suggest full screen.

My Adobe flash crashed and I couldn't see your video, Bruce. But ... they exist independent of us, as they should. If they tap dance on one of us from time to time, it's just the universe talking.

that's awesome.

foxes are really adapting to living in people's back yards. It's kind of unreal.

When I was on Cape Cod a month ago, I saw several in broad daylight, in residential neighborhoods, beside the road. They showed respect for cars but no apparent fear.
