But seriously, it’s true, it did!<\/a><\/p>\n Did you know that I blog there once a month? No? Then you have some catching up to do! I appear to have done nine of them so far. Here’s a list:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n By By Radiation is funny. Not funny ha ha, but rather, funny strange. The health effects of radiation are not at all simple, and in fact, the phrase \u201chealth effects of radiation\u201d has a meaning parallel to \u201cthe health effects of stuff.\u201d It is vague and refers to many different things. For instance, there are radioisotopes \u2026 […]<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n By When climate changes, causing habitats to move, birds can get up and fly away to a new habitat, so really, they\u2019ll be fine. Right? Well, that\u2019s probably a little bit true, but only a very little bit. I\u2019ve been working on climate change lately (not causing it, but reading and writing about it) and birds […]<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n By Penguins.

A squirrel skittered by \u2026 a squirrel […]<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n By Most of the time when we think of birds, we think of the things that make them birds, and not the things that make them dinosaurs. But that is because we often have the relationship between dinosaurs and birds reversed in our little primate minds; Much of what is bird-like is not exclusive to birds, […]<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n By To a birder, migration means that you can live in Minnesota, New York, Paris or Moscow and see exotic tropical birds such as Piranga olivacea and Icterus galbula on a regular basis without buying a plane ticket. The birds do the flying for you. Even if you don\u2019t live in the summer range of a […]<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n By \u201cThey charm the females by instrumental music of the most varied kinds\u201d And thus, Charles Darwin adapted the phrase \u201cInstrumental Music,\u201d previously used to mean humans with instruments making music, to name one of the most important \u201csecondary sexual characters \u2026 diversified and conspicuous in birds\u201d which, added to \u201call sorts of combs, wattles, protuberances, […]<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n The famous bird, birding and birder blog, 10,000 birds, has reached the 4,000 post mark.
