Apparently camera trap footage of a Thylacine has been sent to Hobart museum New Zealand for assessment and confirmation. If this turns out to be true it would be the most incredible natural history story of modern times.
I really hope it is!

Man it’s crazy that this was the last official event of #BlackBirdersWeek
Here’s the tea: take with you the same energy from this week into the future. Boost Black women, know that naturalists can be and are Black, and most importantly
Post a damn bird to the timeline

ATTN: if you need an example of what it looks like for Black ppl to be excluded from birding/outdoor exploration, here’s 1.
@zookeeperjake asked why his post about #BlackBirdersWeek was taken down from the Tennessee naturalist fb.
This is why #BlackBirdersWeek is NECESSARY.

My favorite thing today? Just scrolling and following everyone I see who has tagged themselves as part of #BlackBirdersWeek ... man... I didn’t know there were so many of us. This is tremendous. The value is immesurable. Let me add myself to the mix.

We've been stumped! Can you help us find answers for this kindergarten birder? 👇
How many feathers does a bird (or specifically a Peregrine Falcon) have? A great question from a kindergartener at a
@hawkwatchint ed event. I have no idea. Would love to get a scientifically accurate answer back to the kid! Any insights/resources appreciated.

The female flew ridiculously close this morning, so close I couldn't fit all of her in the frame!

Because we can't really weigh in unless we have evidence he's lying about his bird records, and really even then it's his list.
I'm baffled as to why a man who pled GUILTY is found "innocent" by Billie Barr Code. @ABA why haven't you been heard from on this point of law.
