It’s that time of year again – the Aussie Bird Count! 🦜🦉🦅

Each year, from October 14–20, BirdLife Australia hosts Australia’s biggest birdwatching and citizen science event – and you’re invited to get involved!

Taking part is easy; register on the Birdlife Australia website, spend 20 minutes in your favourite outdoor space, and submit a list of the birds you see during that time! You can participate as many times as you want during the event, so be sure to get started now… aussiebirdcount.org.au

The #Education for #Nature#Vietnam #ENV, one of the country’s #pioneering social organisations in #wildlife #conservation, has released a 2 minute video clip titled "Chim troi keu cuu" (wild birds cry out for help) to urge the #community to refrain from #WildBird consumption and join #protection efforts.

The clip exposes haunting and cruel moments of the widespread destruction of the feathered animals, giving only a glimpse of the acts prevalent in many localities nationwide.

Vietnam is among the 25 countries with the richest #diversity of wild #birds species globally. However, #poaching and #IllegalTrading pose serious threats to hundreds of #indigenous and #migratory bird species in the country. In localities such as #QuangNinh and #ThaiBinh in the north and #ThuaThien - #Hue in the central region, #poachers employ sophisticated methods including decoys and birdsong mimicking devices to lure the animals, followed by nets, traps, or guns for capture. This rampant hunting seriously jeopardises Vietnam's #biodiversity.

疲れがたまっているので、今週末は用事だけ済ませようかと思いつつ、用事済ませている間に元気が出てきたら公園に行こうかな、とレンズだけは鞄に忍ばせて出かけた。
でもやっぱりだるいので、そのまま帰ろうと歩いていると、ムクドリの群れが道で何かをついばんでいる。
「せっかくレンズあるし、まあムクドリでも撮るか〜」
と鞄からカメラを取り出してレンズキャップを外している間に、ムクドリの群れは飛び立ってしまった。
と、その静かになった小道にスズメが降りてきた。「まあスズメでもいいか」とレンズを向けると、そこにはこんな光景が!

ちょっと元気が出ました。

Forecast is for pretty cold and snowy week. Remember the feathered friends who really struggle in this weather. Birdseed, dried fruit, and sliced apples will bring myriad birds flocking. Chaffinches, greenfinches, siskins, sparrows, Dunnock, jackdaws (my favourite), tits, blackbirds and goldfinches in our garden today. #wildbird
