Do you see what the Pyrrholoxia is feasting on? Even though my three dogs chose the moment to run up to the patio not 6 feet from him? He loves my Jalopenos. A taste we share! But I enjoy the spicy heat of the capsaicin, and as a bird, he lacks the receptors to feel that kind of heat. Mice on the other hand are mammals and do not like hot peppers at all, so they leave the fruit alone. Perfect, they would only chew the seeds to pieces. Birds swallow the seeds whole and pass them along , making them the ideal dispersers of the seeds.

Americans face countless choices every day, and it can be a struggle to pick the most healthy, economical, and responsible options. At the same time, the ability to choose freely is irreplaceable and people are hesitant to see their choices compromised. Behavioral psychology can mitigate this paradox, subtly promoting the most responsible choices while preserving all of the available options. “Nudge” strategies are being used in a wide range of settings, including to promote healthier eating choices in cafeterias by moving healthier foods to more prominent locations, to encourage home energy savings by supplying consumers with more intuitive information, and even to reduce procrastination on paying taxes by sharing information on community payment behavior.
We noticed this activity in our neighbors tree, a few houses from ours. The crows were quite alert in the presence of this eagle.
"Mobbing behavior is an antipredator behavior which occurs when individuals of a certain species mob a predator by cooperatively attacking or harassing it, usually in order to protect their offspring."
"Mobbing calls may be used to summon nearby individuals to cooperate in the attack."

I took this picture today, 11/8/15. This Robin is perched on an old Robin nest from this summer. Is it exhibiting odd behavior or is this perhaps just a coincidence? Comments welcome.

Conducta (2014) Just two weeks after its premier, the cuban film Conducta, has filled cuban movie theatres. Written and Directed by Ernesto Daranas (“Los Dioses Rotos”, 2009), the movie tells the story of “Chala”, a 12 year old social outcast from La Habana, and his relationship with Carmela, his veteran sixth grade teacher.
Having a promiscuous, drogadict mom, not knowing who his dad was, and living in a ramshackle house, Chala spent his days at school and his afternoons training fight dogs (an illegal activity in Cuba) in order to make a living for him and his mother. The movie that is attracting thousands of viewers to the theatres is already considered the biggest audiovisual event of the year.
Familiar acrobats of the air, Ring-billed Gulls nimbly pluck tossed tidbits from on high. Comfortable around humans, they frequent parking lots, garbage dumps, beaches, and fields, sometimes by the hundreds. These are the gulls you're most likely to see far away from coastal areas—in fact, most Ring-billed Gulls nest in the interior of the continent, near freshwater. A black band encircling the yellow bill helps distinguish adults from other gulls—but look closely, as some other species have black or red spots on the bill.

Size & Shape
The Ring-billed is a medium-sized gull with a fairly short, slim bill. When the gull perches, its long, slender wings extend well past its square-tipped tail. In flight, the birds move lightly on easy flaps of their fairly slender wings.
Color Pattern
Adults are clean gray above, with a white head, body and tail; their black wingtips are spotted with white. They have yellow legs and a yellow bill with a black band around it. Nonbreeding adults have brown-streaked heads. During their first two years, Ring-billed Gulls are a motley brown and gray with a pink bill and legs.
Behavior
These sociable gulls often fly overhead by the hundreds or feed together at a golf course, beach, or field. Strong, nimble flyers and opportunistic feeders, Ring-billed Gulls circle and hover acrobatically looking for food; they also forage afloat and on foot.
Habitat
Ring-billed Gulls often congregate around humans, at garbage dumps, parking lots, and freshly plowed fields. While the species is common on coastal beaches, particularly during winter, many Ring-billed Gulls lead inland lives, never setting eyes on the sea.
Cool Facts
Many, if not most, Ring-billed Gulls return to breed at the colony where they hatched. Once they have bred, they are likely to return to the same breeding spot each year, often nesting within a few meters of the last year's nest site. Many individuals return to the same wintering sites each winter too.
Although it is considered a typical large white-headed gull, the Ring-billed Gull has been known to hybridize only with smaller, black-headed species, such as Franklin's, Black-headed, and Laughing gulls.
Migrating Ring-billed Gulls apparently use a built-in compass to navigate. When tested at only two days of age, chicks showed a preference for magnetic bearings that would take them in the appropriate direction for their fall migration. The gulls also rely on landmarks and high-altitude winds to provide directional cues.
Ring-billed Gulls near Tampa Bay, Florida, became accustomed to feasting on garbage at an open landfill site. Then, in 1983, operators replaced the dumping grounds with closed incinerators. The thwarted scavengers found themselves another open dump, but the pattern continues all across the gull's range. When waste-management practices shift from open landfills to closed incinerators, gull numbers often drop.
Some Ring-billed Gull nests at study sites in California and Oregon contained pebbles the size and shape of gull eggs. The parents apparently pulled the pebbles into their nests from the surrounding ground, mistaking them for eggs gone astray.
Ring-billed Gull nesting colonies normally include a small percentage of two-female couples. Fertilized by an obliging male, each female spouse lays a clutch of eggs, leading to 5–7-egg "superclutches."

The hit American boy band Mindless Behavior finished off their first tour of this country with their final concert before returning to America at Enfield Grammar School, as a guest of the Student Council. The band, a massive success in America, with over a million followers on twitter and a huge fan base on You Tube, were in England on a promotional tour.
As part of our links with the local community we invited both students from St Anne’s and Enfield County to attend. The band performed four hits off their debut album that is presently at number seven in the American Album chart, followed by a question and answer session and autograph signing. Over 400 boys and girls from the schools were chosen by their Heads of Year to see the band as a reward to recognise their excellent efforts and behaviour in the last few months.
Well done to everyone who helped organise this event particularly all Grammar Sixth Form prefects who gave up their time to help stage the event.

For both of me and my bike, from my house (1300mts) to Irazu volcano hills (3000 meters) and then the hardcore dowhill ... lots of fun but the bike is on the hospital.
Next Sunday, Jan 23th, up and down hill on Chirripo / Uran peaks, some of 2000 meters of vertical gain, I guess.
This Pic is made with my celphone, I will start using it when biking around ...
