I LOVE these Kids!
This weekend the British Columbia Field Ornithologists (BCFO) Young Birders Club, went on their first overnight Pelagic Trip. We boarded the MV Frances Barkley for WildResearch's fundraiser and annual Pelagic. We birded the Ucluelet and Tofino area and saw great shorebirds including breeding Pacific Golden-Plovers, Short-billed Dowitchers and Red-necked Phalaropes.
I started this field program back in 2014 and in 2016 I partnered with BCFO. We kept growing and have 25 kids involved in the program now across BC. The joy these kids have brought to my life are tenfold.
This weekend we had 10 participants from all over the province, including Fort St. James, Tofino, Victoria, Kelowna and Vancouver.
The best part of the day was when Liam Singh spotted a provincial rarity, a Manx Shearwater during the pelagic. His great photos can be viewed here:

Congrats to Liam for his amazing find and to all the young birders who got to see it. It was also great seeing the breeding Red Phalaropes, Pomarine Jaeger, Sabine's Gulls, Northern Fulmars and Pink-footed and Sooty Shearwaters.
Thanks to all the young birders for making such a special weekend for us all. We have memories that will last forever.
Thanks to Ilya Povalyaev and Warren Lee for helping me supervise the kids this weekend.
A big thank you to all the parents that support me and this young birder program and their kid's birding passion!
Looking forward to our next field trip (which is now FULL) in June to Manning Park!
For more info on future events and for any young birders who want to join click here: bcfo.ca/young-birders-program-field-trips/ and feel free to contact me at bcbirdergirl(at)gmail(dot)com if you want to sign up!
In 2018 I will be helping to organize the Young Birder Events and field trips at the International Ornithological Congress www.iocongress2018.com/. Here their work and achievements will also be showcased. So we have lots to look forward to from the Young Birders in BC.
One day the Earth will be
just a blind space turning,
night confused with day.
Under the vast Andean sky
there'll be no more mountains,
not a rock or ravine.
Only one balcony will remain
of all the world's buildings,
and of the human mappa mundi,
limitless sorrow.
In place of the Atlantic Ocean,
a little saltiness in the air,
and a fish, flying and magical
with no knowledge of the sea.
In a car of the 1900's (no road
for it's wheels) three girls
of that time, pressing onwards
like ghosts in the fog.
They'll peer through the door
thinking they're nearing Paris
when the odor of the sky
grips them by the throat.
Instead of a forest
there'll be one bird singing,
which nobody will ever place,
or prefer, or even hear.
Except for God, who listening out,
proclaims it is a goldfinch.
- Jules Supervielle

Many people from Appalachia moved into Cincinnati and settled in this area. The mural depicts the hill country and mines they came from with the road leading to the city of Cincinnati across the Ohio river on our famous suspension bridge (designed by the same person who did the Brooklyn Bridge) to their current and future lives.

Who knows in which direction our nation is heading??
Over 300 million American's and this is the best we can do?
These 6 year olds battled the entire game. My son Luke (#29) didn't realize the kid across from him was one of the biggest and fastest kids on the other team. Didn't stop Luke though. Took the opposition out of the game and sealed a victory.
Someday I am going to invent something for a better world !
This is how they start, innovation and invention.
Thank You for letting me take this wonderful picture

I previously posted an image of Rahm Emanuel as Mayor 45%, but then I notice many people, including Terrance Heath, using the Mayor 1% moniker. This led me to produce this image.
Rahm Israel Emanuel, aka Rahm Emanuel, is the 55th Mayor of Chicago. Emanuel is a Democratic and served in the Obama and Clinton administrations. Rahm Emanuel also served in Congress representing Illinois's 5th district.

Regram or Repost this image to spread the good news! 👊 ✌️ 👌 There are more battles ahead for the Amazon and for the forests, as we fight for recognition of Indigenous rights and to stop future dams.

Children are our future, no matter where we live. I believe there is no job more important than being their protector, nurturer, and teacher. Teaching them to be honorable human beings. And what better way is there to teach them about selfless love, honesty, and honor than through our own example? I humbly applaud all the wonderful examples out there that are positively contributing in one way or another to the life education of a child.
The columns that line Level 1 in the south-east wing of Mitchell Building will be a feature of this space in the new Michael Crouch Family Galleries.

This wing of the Mitchell Building is located on Level 1, in the south-east corner. It was officially opened on 20 March 1964. Interestingly it was originally fitted out as a reading room and exhibition space but was quickly turned over to staff who were chronically overcrowded.

Kindergarteners from all corners of Howard County came to IU Kokomo's campus for their first day of college at the Walk Into My Future event. The day is designed to get children accustomed to a college campus and to hopefully inspire them to go to college one day.

"What about the ducks? And the frogs? It's their home!!!" Maddi was NOT happy about that....she kept leaning closer and closer over the water trying to reach the trash til I had to intervene. I'm so proud of her. And her parents for teaching her to care.

(And, yes... she does have bruising on the ridge of her nose between her eyes!! Something about "nearly fell off my bike and hit the handle bars...I shoulda' just kept on fallin'!") She's almost shed the training wheels already...that's our Maddi!! :-)
And a Budman update: Maddi is happy that her Grandpa is home and continues to improve...

Wendy Sharpe, one of Australia’s leading contemporary artists, began a long-term residency with the Library in late 2017. Wendy will be recording the $15 million transformation of the historic Mitchell Building as the project takes shape.
The area she is working in used to be staff offices and will be one of the spaces in the new Michael Crouch Family Galleries.
