Joanne's Backyard Photographs of birds and butterflies from a backyard at an undisclosed location in the northcentral US. http://www.joannesbackyard.com/
Extractions: Welcome to Joanne's Backyard. I created this as a place for fellow bird lovers like myself, to come and see the various birds that have visited my backyard habitat. In addition to all the pictures on this site, you will also find plenty of related info on birds, my butterfly garden, a little about me and also links to my favorite sites. A few years back I bought a bird house to decorate my backyard fence. Little did I know, that this one purchase was going to change my life. Months later, I noticed a gorgeous blue-colored bird sitting on the fence. It wasn't long before I learned I had actually purchased a bluebird house and now had a pair claiming it for their own. What a thrill it was, to have a successful fledge of eastern bluebirds. This experience was life altering. I was now inspired and it didn't take long before I began adding feeders and bird baths in hopes of attracting more bird species to my yard. I searched the internet for sites, to learn how to provide a habitat that would be attractive to birds. I found the National Wildlife Federation Backyard Habitat program and realized I already provided the basics (food, shelter, water, and places to raise their young), so I completed the application process and received my certification in August, 2002. As my passion for backyard birding has grown, my interests have expanded to include gardening for birds, digital photography and raising mealworms, which are a favorite food of many birds, but especially the bluebirds. I now have a few butterfly/hummingbird gardens and was treated to my first ever sighting of a ruby-throated hummingbird this past summer, which I was fortunate to photograph.

Extractions: New Zealand's natural environment is unique. Once part of the southern super continent of 'Gondwana', it had been isolated for about 60 million years until the first humans arrived a mere 1,000 years ago. That event made New Zealand the last major land area on earth to receive the brunt of human contact. What the early Polynesians found was a natural environment that had evolved in total isolation. "New Zealand is the closest we can come to studying evolution on another planet". (Jarred Diamond - American biologist). There were no mammals other than 2 bats. The bird life had evolved free of predation except for a few birds of prey. There was a remarkable array of flightless birds, including the giant moa (now extinct). The Maori brought the Polynesian rat and dog. Europeans followed with a long list of predators. The effect of these animals on New Zealand's remarkable bird life was devastating, but in places such as Kahurangi, many species still remain and like the plant life, most are endemic.

The hotter months are also best if you want to see flowers in bloom, trees in full leaf and Spanish moss at its thickest.

GORP - Birdlife In Kenya General information and summaries of which birds can be seen in various parks and reserves. http://gorp.away.com/gorp/location/africa/kenya/birdlife.htm
Extractions: Birding in Kenya Kenya has a vast variety of species, over 1000, in a vast variety of habitats. From montane forest to tropical coast, in every conceivable altitude range: deserts, open savannah grassland, lowland forest, bush and scrub, lakes and mudflats. This huge variety of birds is made possible by the lack of climatic extremes. Kenya straddles the equator and has no 'summer' or 'winter' as such - only wet and dry seasons. In the northern latitudes huge numbers of birds migrate south to avoid the harsh oncoming winters. From as far east as the Bering Straits and as far west as the northern tip of Norway - they come in their millions to East Africa. It has been estimated, give or take a few million, that as many as 6,000 million birds make the journey each year. Combine the migratory birds to the incredible variety of local birds, and you have an ornithological paradise.
