Hello, Ecologists. The American Birding Association (ABA) has a new blog, called--wait for it--The ABA Blog: http://blog.aba.org
I believe a fair bit of the content on this blog will be of interest to ecologists. The blog is multi-authored, delivering the diverse perspectives of 16 writers who are leaders in field ornithology and birding. Here's the line-up: Lynn Barber, Big Years Mike Bergin, Birding Blogs Pete Dunne, Bird Identification Ted Eubanks, Conservation Ted Floyd, Point/Counterpoint Don Freiday, Outdoor Tips (including ethics) Jeff Gordon, ABA Paul Hess, Science Laura Kammermeier, Mobile Technology Michael Retter, Skills Bill Schmoker, Gear Sharon Stiteler (b.k.a. "BirdChick"), Social Networking Noah Strycker, Adventure Brian Sullivan, eBird Nate Swick, Birding Blogs (with Mike Bergin) Rick Wright, Bird Books Here's a sampling of recent postings that I think may be of interest to folks who follow the Ecolog-L list: http://tinyurl.com/2vlm4sh - Paul Hess on bill deformities http://tinyurl.com/38aa7l2 - Noah Strycker on life in the field at Southeast Farallon Island http://tinyurl.com/2ao8eyq - Ted Floyd on avian status and distribution And so forth. The blog is unmoderated, meaning anybody can post comments. In this regard, Ted Eubanks' stuff sure has a way of eliciting reader response! ------------------------------- Ted Floyd Editor, Birding Follow Birding magazine on Twitter: http://twitter.com/BirdingMagazine -------------------------------
