Y tu ôl i'r goeden y mae sied rychiog oren llachar lle mae ffigwr gwryw gwyn sy'n gwisgo dillad cuddliw gwyrdd nad ydyn nhw'n ei ffitio a sbectol haul oren â fframiau oren; mae golwg syfrdan arno wrth iddo syllu ar yr adar o agoriad petryal yn yr adeiledd. Mae iorwg yn llifo o'r ffigwr i'r tir, gan helpu i'w guddio. Mae'r dyn yn camu i ffwrdd o'r agoriad, gan ollwng rhywbeth wrth iddo wneud hynny.

Hyd y bedwaredd ran yw 24 eiliad ac unwaith eto y mae'n dangos y ffigwr militaraidd y tu ôl i goeden Sbaen, o flaen y sied rychiog oren llachar, er bod heulwen euraidd yn tywynnu ar ei wyneb y tro hwn wrth iddo wylio'r porthwyr. Nid oes unrhyw ditwod tomos las yn bresennol, ac mae'r dyn yn dechrau chwibanu cân i ddynwared adar. Hyd y bumed ran yw 1 funud, 46 eiliad ac mae'n dechrau gyda golygfa aeafol lle mae'r sied rychiog oren llachar bellach wedi'i gorchuddio gan eira ac mae'r ddau borthwr adar llawn yn dal i hongian o goeden Sbaen heb ddail.

Mae'n cymysgu â'r amgylchedd, yn gweld pa mor gorfforol agos y gall fod at yr adar, ac yn meithrin eu hymddiriedaeth.

A five-film installation by Peter Finnemore (b.1963), Birdwatcher, made in 2004-2005. All five films (parts) of Birdwatcher are intended to be viewed concurrently with a total running time of 7 minutes, 11 seconds. Part one is 1 minute, 4 seconds and depicts blue tits feeding from two green bird feeders filled with seeds that hang from a Laburnum tree. Behind the tree is a bright orange corrugated shed where a Caucasian male figure dressed in ill-fitting green army camouflage and bold black rimmed orange sunglasses is transfixed, staring out at the birds from a rectangular opening in the structure. Ivy flows from the figure to the ground helping to hide his intrusion. The man steps away from the opening, dropping something in the process. Part two is 2 minutes, 34 seconds and again portrays blue tits feeding from two green bird feeders filled with seeds that hang from a Laburnum tree in front of a bright orange corrugated shed. Only this time, the militaristic figure is standing behind the tree peering out of the bottom right of the screen, slowly adjusting his vantage point between the left- and right-hand bird feeders. His eyes darting between bird and viewer. Part three is 59 seconds and this time portrays the militaristic figure hunched over behind the Laburnum tree, in front of the bright orange corrugated shed. His face mere inches away from the left-hand bird feeder, where a blue tit is happily filling up on seeds. The man's eyes dart between birds and the viewer. Part four is 24 seconds and again depicts the militaristic figure behind the Laburnum tree, in front of the bright orange corrugated shed, although his face is this time basked in soft golden sunlight as he watches the bird feeders. There are no blue tits present, and the man begins to whistle encouraging imitation bird song. Part five is 1 minute, 46 seconds and opens to a wintery scene, the bright orange corrugated shed now covered in snow, the leafless Laburnum tree still holding two full bird feeders. The militaristic figure standing to the left of the tree, watching as blue tits swoop in for quick feeds before flying away. This work is part of the Zen Gardener series, in which Finnemore utilises his garden environment and nature as an active collaborator. Birdwatching is one of the UK's most loved hobbies. Dressed in camouflage gear, Finnemore becomes a modern extension of the mythic Green Man. Blending into the environment, seeing how physically close he can get to the birds, and gain their trust.

Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: Nature's Symphony: The Journey from Skeptic to Avid Birdwatcher Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2026-04-22-07-38-19-hu Story Transcript:Hu: A Hortobágy Národal Park napfényben fürdőző síkságai elvarázsolták azokat is, akik először jártak arrafelé.En: The sunlit plains of the Hortobágy National Park enchanted even those who visited there for the first time.Hu: Május közepe volt, a fű fényes zöldjét színes vadvirágok tarkították, és a tavaszi szellő vidáman játszott a tájon.En: It was the middle of May, the bright green grass was speckled with colorful wildflowers, and the spring breeze played joyfully across the landscape.Hu: Ilyen napon Balázs boldogan vezette a madárleső túrát, hiszen az itt telelő madarak közül sokan visszatérnek ilyenkor.En: On such a day, Balázs was happily leading the bird-watching tour, as many of the birds that wintered here returned at this time.Hu: Balázs élete a természet, különösen a madarak védelme körül forgott.En: Balázs's life revolved around nature, especially protecting birds.Hu: Legnagyobb vágya az volt, hogy másokkal is megossza ezt a szenvedélyt.En: His greatest desire was to share this passion with others.Hu: Ezzel szemben Dóra, bár kissé szkeptikusan, kíváncsi is volt, hogy miért vonz annyi embert a természetvédelmi munka.En: In contrast, Dóra, although a bit skeptical, was also curious about what drew so many people to conservation work.Hu: A csoport lassan sétált a parkban.En: The group strolled slowly through the park.Hu: Balázs élénken mesélt a körülöttük röpködő madarakról, Dóra azonban inkább az általa magával hozott könyvet nézegette.En: Balázs animatedly talked about the birds flitting around them, but Dóra was more engrossed in the book she had brought with her.Hu: "Látjátok?En: "See that?"Hu: " kérdezte Balázs, és a távolban egy nagy, elegáns madarat mutatott.En: asked Balázs, pointing to a large, elegant bird in the distance.Hu: Dóra csak vállat vont.En: Dóra just shrugged.Hu: Nem hitte el, hogy ezek a madarak igazán különlegesek.En: She didn't believe these birds were truly special.Hu: Balázs nem adta fel.En: Balázs didn't give up.Hu: Eldöntötte, hogy elmesél néhány személyes történetet.En: He decided to share some personal stories.Hu: "Tudtátok, hogy van olyan madár, ami több ezer kilométert repül, hogy itt lehessen tavasszal?En: "Did you know there are birds that fly thousands of kilometers to be here in the spring?"Hu: " Dóra fél szemmel végre ránézett.En: Dóra finally glanced over with one eye.Hu: Valahogy ez a történet érdekesebb volt a könyvénél.En: Somehow, this story was more interesting than her book.Hu: Ahogy a csoport haladt előre, a nap sugarai egyre melegebben sütöttek.En: As the group moved forward, the sun's rays grew warmer.Hu: Az egyik bokor mellett megálltak egy hosszabb pihenőre.En: They stopped for a longer break beside a bush.Hu: Ekkor csönd borult mindenkire.En: Suddenly, silence enveloped them.Hu: A természet hatalmas csendje vette körbe őket.En: The vast silence of nature surrounded them.Hu: Egyszer csak egy ritka, csodaszép madár szállt le a közelükben.En: Suddenly, a rare, beautiful bird landed near them.Hu: Dóra szeme elkerekedett.En: Dóra's eyes widened.Hu: A madár tócsába kóstolt, s a színe kékes olajfoltként tündökölt a napsütésben.En: The bird sampled from a puddle, and its color shimmered like an oily blue in the sunlight.Hu: Ez a látvány mindenkit elbűvölt.En: This sight captivated everyone.Hu: Dóra leengedte a könyvét, és most először teljes figyelmét a természet felé fordította.En: Dóra put down her book and, for the first time, directed her full attention to nature.Hu: Egy pillanatra minden úgy tűnt, mintha megállt volna körülöttük az idő.En: For a moment, it seemed as if time had stopped around them.Hu: A túra végére Dóra megkérdezte Balázst: "Hogyan tudnék többet megtudni a madarakról?En: By the end of the tour, Dóra asked Balázs, "How can I learn more about the birds?Hu: Van valamilyen önkéntes program, amibe be lehet kapcsolódni?En: Is there any volunteer program I can join?"Hu: " Balázs arca felragyogott.En: Balázs's face lit up.Hu: "Igen, van.En: "Yes, there is.Hu: Gyere el legközelebb is!En: Come next time too!"Hu: " - mondta lelkesen.En: he said enthusiastically.Hu: Hortobágy zöld rétjein a nap már lassan nyugovóra tért, de Balázs és Dóra szívében új fény ébredt.En: On the green meadows of Hortobágy, the sun was setting slowly, but new light was born in Balázs and Dóra's hearts.Hu: Dóra már más szemmel nézett a világra, és eldöntötte, hogy részese lesz valami nagyobbnak.En: Dóra now saw the world through different eyes and decided to become part of something bigger.Hu: Balázs pedig megnyugodott, hogy munkája és szenvedélye nem hiábavaló.En: Balázs felt a sense of calm, knowing that his work and passion were not in vain.Hu: Sikerült megérinteni valakit, s ezáltal védve a természetet egy újabb napra.En: He had managed to touch someone, thereby protecting nature for another day.

Retired wildlife biologist Pam Perry joined the "KAXE Morning Show" to share what birds and other wildlife she's been seeing during this month of May.

Judy Walker of the Mecklenburg Audubon Society shares how people have recently been coming into the activity of bird watching.  She adds to Carolina Outdoor host, Bill Bartee's list of famed people with Amy Tan, author of the Backyard Bird Chronicles & the character James Bond was named for a friend of Ian Fleming. Backyard watching is how many people begin in the activity of birdwatching.  There is nothing that should hold someone back, except time, in becoming a birder.  Birdwatching is a "gateway to the outdoors."

Host Bill Bartee welcomes longtime contributor to the Carolina Outdoors, Judy Walker.  Walker has been watching birds as a kid.  However, it was in the 1980s when a female cardinal should up in her window.  This became her "spark bird" & began her interest in ornithology.  She shares her thoughts on the local club history to the changes in technology, & the continuing growth of members of the Mecklenburg Audubon Society.

Eithne Dodd speaks to Vinny Hyland who spotted an African Hoopoe in Kerry last week and Ed Carty, field ornithologist, explains why so many have arrived on Irish southern shores recently.

This free app can name birds just from their song or a quick photo. Birdwatchers, you're gonna want this.

There are many excellent places in which enthusiasts can observe birds across the country, though the standard of the actual facilities, interpretive features, viewing areas and access routes at these locations can vary greatly. Jim, Richard and Niall discuss the good, the bad and the ugly of Irish birding facilities.

Birdwatching has become a popular pastime. Birdwatchers are convinced that birds have intrinsic value and that protecting them is essential. However, enthusiasm doesn't always lead to social consensus. Elected officials answer to voters, and corporate executives answer to shareholders. University of Utah ornithologist Cagan Sekercioglu says that to influence policymakers, it's crucial to “offer credible research showing that healthy bird populations are essential to human welfare.”

Roughly a quarter of chocolate sales in the US and the UK occur around the holidays at the end of the year. And if you are listening to this podcast, you are statistically almost certain to be participating. What does that have to do with birds? Well, like coffee before it, chocolate now comes in a bird friendly version. It's the subject of a recent article in Birdwatcher's Digest by Bryony Angell a Washington based birder and writer on birding culture. She joins us to talk about what that certification means for birds and chocolate-lovers alike.  Also, congratulations to the full slate of 2024 ABA Awards recipients and thanks for all you do for the birding community.  Subscribe to the podcast at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts and please leave a rating or a review if you are so inclined!

Maygen & The Birdwatcher's music is Americana that isn't afraid to embrace eclecticism but is also firmly rooted in folk and country. To achieve their rich, full sound, the band fills out the sonic details with an all-star band led by Noah Neumann's baritone vocals and Singer-Songwriter Maygen Lacey, which has garnered them critical and public acclaim. Their latest EP Leap Year (Out NOW) is a refreshing yet contemplative collection of songs that Maygen & The Birdwatcher have had in their hearts for the past year and a half. Essential for the artists to find a comfortable place to record these deeper, more serious tracks – they found that creative space in the dead of winter, in the warm studio of Real-Phonic Records in the small town of Cleveland, Minnesota. A prolific artist, and guitar maestro himself, Erik Koskinen recorded and masterfully engineered the project. Join us as we talk about the uniqueness of recording in Winter, the genesis of the band. how Maygen and Noah met, the sudden success of the 'Moonshine' album & more.

Host Suzy speaks with Sandra Morocho (Birdwatchers of Quijos Valley, Ecuador) and Michaela Leeb (Swarovski Optik). Sandra lives in the cloud forest on the eastern slopes of the Andes in Ecuador. In 2014 she won a pair of binoculars in the Digiscoper of the Year competition run by Swarovski. Using the binoculars stoked Sandra's enthusiasm for sharing views of the local birds with her friends. From there, Sandra's engagement with the wider community led to an initiative with local leaders to promote eco-tourism alongside conservation efforts in the cloud forest in the Quijos Valley. Michaela tells us of the part Swarovski plays in supporting conservation efforts around the world. We also hear how Sandra and Michaela would spend a fantasy birding day.

Actress Camille Sullivan has acquired a boatload of awards and nominations over the course of her career for her work in an array of dramatic projects like Intelligence, Hunter Hunter, The Birdwatcher, and The Disappearance, but it's her work in a top-rated comedy series that's currently garnering her mad love from critics, fans, industry insiders, and the fine people of TikTok. The series in question is Shoresy, a spin-off of Jared Keeso and Jacob Tierney's beloved comedy series, Letterkenny. Shoresy – which recently finished airing its third season and is lacing up for a fourth – follows the foul-mouthed, chirp-serving, mother-loving, fan favourite character from Letterkenny named Shoresy as he joins the Sudbury Bulldogs in a quest to never lose again. Camille is Laura Mohr, a reporter who covers the Bulldogs as part of her beat. Shoresy lights up like a Christmas tree whenever he lays eyes on Laura. It's adorable how the normally shit-talking Shoresy is so sweet and earnest during these interactions, and it's so much fun to watch Camille as Laura react with sparkling eyes, mild frustration, bemusement, and (mostly) committed to keeping professional boundaries intact. Camille can also be seen kicking all sorts of emotional ass in thrillers like Exile with Adam Beach, which is now on VOD, and will soon be seen in the highly anticipated Shelby Oaks, which will screen at the venerable Fantasia Film Festival this summer. In this funny and fascinating interview, Camille talks Shoresy, being a loner, acting in highly dramatic movies, why she doesn't miss auditioning in “the room,” and her dream to be the Nicolas Cage of Canada.

In a lively interview with Buz Kloot, Joe Dickie and Lynn Betts, Maygen and Noah of the band Maygen & the Birdwatcher delve into the origins and evolution of their musical journey and their collaboration with the South Dakota Grasslands Coalition. The discussion began with Maygen recounting her unexpected path into music, having grown  up with 90's country music in the house thanks to her mother. After having children, she overcame her fear of performing and began as a studio vocalist, eventually forming a duo called Sparrow's Rising. This partnership led to an opportunity to open for the Indigo Girls, where she met Noah, a talented guitarist who shared her passion for music.Noah's background contrasted Maygen's as he grew up disliking country music, influenced by his father's farm boy roots but personally drawn to classic rock and metal. His appreciation for country music grew over time, and when Maygen and Noah met, they clicked immediately, both musically and personally, leading to the formation of Maygen & the Birdwatcher around 2018.Their collaboration matured, with Noah stepping into songwriting and contributing significantly to their melodies, lyrics and message. The pair continually pushed each other to learn and grow, resulting in a dynamic and evolving musical partnership.The conversation then shifted to their acclaimed project, "Where Good Things Grow." Lynn Betts, a consultant for the South Dakota Grassland Coalition, recounted how he discovered Maygen & the Birdwatcher while searching for the perfect band to create a song for a campaign promoting the benefits of grasslands. He spent considerable time listening to various Midwest artists before finding their sound ideal for the project.Maygen and Noah eagerly embraced the challenge. Inspired by the coalition's work and their own experiences touring the grasslands, they crafted lyrics that captured the essence of the landscape and the interconnectedness of its ecosystem. They wrote two songs initially and combined elements from both to create the final version of "Where Good Things Grow," which resonated deeply with the themes of the campaign.The intention from the start was to produce a music video, which eventually featured the band performing amidst the prairie, visually complementing the song's message. The result was a powerful and evocative portrayal of the grasslands' beauty and significance.In recognition of their outstanding work, Maygen & the Birdwatcher received an award from the South Dakota Grassland Coalition, underscoring the impact and excellence of their contribution. The project not only showcased their musical talents but also highlighted the importance of preserving natural landscapes, blending art and advocacy in a compelling way.Overall, this interview highlights the band's journey, their creative process, and this meaningful and innovative collaboration with the South Dakota Grassland Coalition that defines new ways music and advocacy can intertwine.Links: https://wheregoodthingsgrow.org/Watch the full video for ‘Where Good Things Grow” athttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FklZNJWNxcYTo find out more about Maygen and Noah, go to: https://www.maygenandthebirdwatcher.com/or follow them on Facebook or Instagram. @maygenandthebirdwatcher

5 TowersAscension: Deckbuilding GameColorettoBoopBirdwatcher

The Government is doing too little, too slowly, to meet its own environmental ambitions and statutory commitments, according to a report published today. We hear from the Office for Environmental Protection. The LAMMA Show, taking place in Birmingham today, has 600 exhibitors showcasing the very latest in farm machinery and innovation, everything from specialist soil-aeration machinery to farm solar energy systems, and of course, enormous tractors. Birdwatchers from across the UK have been flocking to a Derbyshire beauty spot to catch a glimpse of an exotic visitor. There have been near record sightings of the colourful waxwing this winter. They've been seen in one spot in the Peak District in their largest numbers since way back in 1970.Presented by Caz Graham and produced by Beatrice Fenton.

Buckle up! We are heading down to the fields of Clemson, South Carolina!   I got an email from 3 Booker Rumble D. back in February which said “Neil, I have a guest suggestion for you. J Drew Lanham is a 2022 MacArthur fellow and an American ornithologist. I loved his book and would love to hear you interview him (maybe while you guys go birding?)” Intrigued, I looked him up and discovered I … sort of already knew him? I had read and loved his wonderfully thoughtful and nuanced essay last year called "What Do We Do About John James Audubon?" and his viral YouTube clip called "Rules for the Black Birdwatcher". (“You're gonna need at least two pieces of ID. And never wear a hoodie. Ever.”)   So I bought Drew's memoir 'The Home Place' and found it completely entrancing. His writing is poetry — vivid, transportive, meditative. After that I reached out to Drew and we set a time to make the 10-hour haul down to Clemson farm country, wake up at the crack of dawn, and then get picked up by Drew in his Dodge Ram to spend a morning together — birdwatching.   J. Drew Lanham is a naturalist, birdwatcher, hunter-conservationist, MacArthur 'Genius' Grant-winning distinguished professor. He is a meditative, philosophical, nature- and wild-loving soul who has deeply considered our long relationship with the natural world and is never afraid to confront harsh truths. “European Starlings are a dark-plumaged being brought over the Atlantic for the services of others,” Drew says at one point. “Hmmm, where have I heard that before?”   You'll be riding in the middle seat of the truck, getting out with us between fence posts and grassy meadows, hearing Blue Grosbeaks, Eastern Meadowlarks, and Red-Shouldered Hawks, and listening to Drew's endlessly wise observations about everything from South Carolina's slavery past, why there's blood in tofu, what your birdwatching ‘starter kit' should look like, how to observe a land ethic, how we might behave differently if Chicken Nuggets blinked at us, formative books (of course!), and much, much more. “You can't see everything at once,” Drew reminds us. “So learn to see the everything in one.”   With birds serving as a metaphor for everything in life I think you'll love this slow, soul-fueling, wisdom-stuffed conversation with Professor J. Drew Lanham. I left his truck that morning thinking “I want to be more like Drew.” I think you'll feel the same way.   Let's flip the page into Chapter 131 now…   Listen at https://www.3books.co/chapters/131 --- Leave us a voicemail.

One of the most difficult skills to pick up as a birdwatcher is how to identify birds in flight. You have to sort through a series of visual clues all at once, at high speed: silhouette, wing shape, how fast it flaps, and patterning. An experienced birder will take in all these and other clues that are hard to put into words — and might say something like: “Look! A hawk! Must be a Cooper's Hawk — it has that giss.” In other words, it has all the telltale signs. But where did this bit of birdwatching slang originate? More info and transcript at BirdNote.org. Want more BirdNote? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter.
