  1. Cranky crow forces visitors to Noosa’s Hastings Street to duck for cover

    As tourists traverse Noosa’s famed shopping strip, they are blissfully unaware they are being watched.  A seriously cranky…

  2. 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!

  7. It’s a bird city

    Cork City, where birds have become incredibly adept at turning human carelessness into dining opportunities.

    Urban-adapted birds like the seagulls and crows photographed here have developed significantly different behaviours compared to their rural counterparts. City-dwelling seagulls often show reduced fear responses to humans and have learned to time their foraging around peak human activity periods, such as lunch hours when dropped food is most available.

    Crows, meanwhile, have demonstrated remarkable problem-solving abilities in urban environments and can even learn to associate specific locations with regular food sources. Studies have shown that urban bird populations often have different dietary compositions, stress hormone levels, and even song patterns compared to rural birds, reflecting their adaptation to city life and the constant presence of human activity.

  12. The Cormorants of Cape May

    During a boat tour through the Cape May saltmarsh, I observed Double-crested Cormorants at rest, in flight, and in that transitional space between water and sky.

  13. Looking for bird behaviouralists with knowledge of Swainson's hawks specifically. I captured some burst video of a "stray" Swainson's hawk seeming to attack our local Mama Swainson's in the air.

    The full video (with more details of the situation) is on my YouTube channel (just over 2 minutes) and on my Project Hawk website (see bio). Appreciate any input on this behaviour!

  14. Here is a scratched-up egg (chicken, I think) that I found on the 5th of January. I suspect ravens or currawongs have been playing with it because it keeps turning up in different places. The second photo was taken exactly 3 months later, 35 metres (115 feet) from the 1st location.
