Birds of Dewey-Humboldt Receives Literary Classics Seal of Approval
Birds of Dewey-Humboldt, Arizona just received the Literary Classics Seal of Approval (CLC). When the book appeared, I called on readers to watch for errors since I had made the questionable decision to edit the work myself. The CLC Seal suggests that errors were below the ‘intolerable’ threshold.
The book is a finalist for top honors to be announced July 1.

congratulations!
the vermilion flycatcher often dotted the algarrobo trees -Prosopis pallida – along the coastal area where i live in ecuador. when the municipality dozed down the trees lining the rural road, the flycatchers all but vanished from the area… sigh..
it’s refreshing to see one prominently featured on the cover!

So sorry for what happened. The bird seems to be stable here, but I have seen other species decline in my neighborhood as direct consequences of habitat loss.

An Andean Coot made its appearance about 2K from the house in a marsh… It was quite far from its normal territory… Thank goodness for cameras that document those species!

The American Coot is similar and is one of the most faithful nesters here at Coldwater Farm.

The American Coot is ‘presumed extinct’ here in Ecuador, for unknown reasons. It’s interesting how a species can be very abundant in one area and rare in another…
I’m still studying the sea-rise data you posted….it’s like looking at a lung xray that confirms ‘cancer’ and knowing that each day is precious…
