The spotting of two red tailed hawks in New York City has sparked world wide attention. They have even been affectionately named Pale Male and Lola. The rediscovery of the ivory billed wood pecker has created quite a stir as well. These discoveries and others have contributed to the growth of this sport, and have been a major contributing factor to the reason that more than 40,000,000 North Americans are involved with bird watching as a sport.
Who knows who could be the next person to spot an endangered or thought to be extinct species?
FYI: Cornell lab of Ornithology states: The Avian Flu is at present not a danger to people who watch or feed birds in North American. As of January of 2004, almost all of the known human cases of avian flu have occurred in Southeast Asia. It was further stated that in almost all of these cases these infections were contracted by people who handle chickens. Avian flu infected Birds have been found in Kazakhstan, Mongolia and Russia. Such infection has been found primarily in migratory waterfowl and shorebirds.
Don’t forget to enjoy the holiday season. It is thought that the gift of a bird feeder is timeless and brings peace and joy the whole year through.
