Natural Curiosity, an outdoor education non-profit in southern New Mexico, will host an upcoming Birding Workshop April 24th - 26th, and we would love your help spreading the word! This workshop is designed for anyone interested in deepening their connection to birds...

As if birds didn’t already have enough problems in this world, now it turns out that there is a large European bat that catches and eats migrating birds on the wing.  

Next time you have a chance to view a total solar eclipse, watch and listen to what the birds around you are doing!  

Analysis of museum specimens quantified changes in Anna’s hummingbird beaks over time and found that beaks got longer and larger as feeders proliferated–a noticeable difference in a surprisingly short time span. 

Many bird species need to learn their songs and have specific brain regions dedicated to learning them. Some scientists have observed sleeping birds making “lip-syncing” movements as their singing muscles twitched, and wondered – could birds be rehearsing song?
