Don't know if this is our absolute worst or best video. Light on birds - heavy on ridiculousness. Like / subscribe and share with whoever cooks paella or does the most twerking in your house.

The Two Jonnies have taken the difficult decision to attend Global Birdfair - if we are paid enough and offered enough free birding holidays. Your play Birdfair...

1/3 We’ve taken the difficult decision to not return to Global Birdfair as an exhibitor. While we recognise that Birdfair provides an opportunity to meet with members and volunteers, our continued investment in other ways to engage with supporters is proving to be a more effective use of resources.

Feedback: thanks for this informative, authoritative and funny series. Amazing cinematography and a smorgasbord of ace birds to boot BUT the background soundtrack is way too loud for my highly attuned rarity finding ears, to the point where I can hardly hear the guttural twang of regional accents. 😉

Next Two Jonnies video goes live later. This one is especially good, as @jonnybirder.bsky.social and me figure how to take footage instead of just stills with the camera!

Is that a #UK250 beanie @jonnybirder.bsky.social ? You look resplendent. Is there a way a dirty member of the public could get one too?

Good afternoon,

@jonnybirder.bsky.social and me have a dream. A dream that we can go bird watching, almost all the time. We hope to achieve this via the medium of YouTube. Please can you all subscribe to our channel? We're basically the new Paul brothers.

Eigg isn't connected to the UK national grid. Instead, we generate 90% to 95% of our electricity from wind, sun, & water (hydro). Community-owned Eigg Electric was switched on in 2008. Islanders are trained and employed to manage it. Electricity costs 27p per unit/kWh. isleofeigg.org/eigg-electric/

For the record, Project 2025, the blueprint for the incoming Trump administration, would privatize the National Weather Service, disband oceanic research (too climate "alarmist") and dismantle NOAA, which is the primary source of hurricane info. static.project2025.org/2025_Mandate...
The National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) should be dismantled and many of its functions eliminated, sent to other agencies, privatized, or placed under the control of states and territories. • static.project2025.org NATIONAL OCEANIC AND ATMOSPHERIC ADMINISTRATION Break Up NOAA. The single biggest Department of Commerce agency outside of decennial census years is the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, which houses the National Weather Service, National Marine Fisheries Service, and other components. NOAA garners $6.5 billion of the department's $12 billion annual operational budget and accounts for more than half of the department's personnel in non-decadal Census years (2021 figures). NOAA consists of six main offices: • The National Weather Service (NWS); - 674 - Department of Commerce • The National Ocean Service (NOS); | • The Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR); | • The National Environmental Satellite, Data and Information Service (NESDIS); • The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS); and • The Office of Marine and Aviation Operations and NOAA Corps. Together, these form a colossal operation that has become one of the main drivers of the climate ch The NWS provides data the private companies use and should focus on its data-gathering services. Because private companies rely on these data, the NWS should fully commercialize its forecasting operations.
