Can anyone help me find a slightly obscure reference from Revue de zoologie et de botanique africaines, Volume 80. It is de Roo-de Ridder, A. & de Roo-de Ridder, F. 1969. The first records of Cinnyris “ogilvie-granti” (Bannerman) from the Congo Republic. Rev. Zool. Bot. Afr. 80: 391–396. #birds

After a three hour wait in a hide in the forest I admit to a fair level of excitement when this male Palawan Peacock Pheasant stepped out of the gloom. He didn't stay long.

What's the business case for a farmer to take down old hedges (3-5m) around pasture. This is quite wet grassland often inundated for weeks in winter, grazed by cattle from time to time. He might gain a metre wide strip of grass along the field edge. What other rationale might there be?

Ooh isn't it pretty?! Oh, it's roundup. But how thoughtful to leave the big tree!
Views around Ouse Fen today. Thankfully one day all this will be nature reserve. But these are the labour pains.

I thought a spring Wryneck, some Ring Ouzels and other bits and bobs in West Cornwall today were consolation for missing the Alpine Accentor that disappeared yesterday, but a great surprise when it reappeared this evening. All the better for that bit of pain. 😂 #UKbirding

Can any helpful person tell me how to extract a list of folders and their sizes on Microsoft Windows 10. I need a CSV or text or spreadsheet file listing all subfolders (not just files) and their sizes within a particular folder. Thank you.

Richard Porter's obituary of Ian Willis in @britishbirds.bsky.social magazine seems rather sad: "on moving to Scotland in the 1980s, Ian went his own way and... contact between him and his friends and family was subsequently lost...". Ian's illustrations were part of my growing up as a birder.

What's to be done about the plastic problem in Ghana? In Abiriw there are few places for households to dispose of their rubbish so this stream is the dump of choice for many. 5 people came and lobbed their bags in during the 10 minutes I stood there.

Grass in. Charcoal briquettes out. In c 20 minutes of work (+ 3 days drying). Process is less dependent on hard physical labour than conventional charcoal, making it accessible to women. And quicker too. We hope it helps reduce the loss of slow growing trees in the landscape around Mole NP, Ghana.

Not much of a photo but I was very pleased to find this Oriole Warbler in a clump of bamboo in Kibi, Ghana today. The first I've seen in Ghana and not often reported from this part of the country #birds
