Star bird(s) today for me at #CarltonMarshes #Suffolk was not just one but two #GrasshopperWarblers chasing each other through the reeds by the path but incredibly difficult to see let alone photograph, extreme patience payed off with a few photos blurred by reeds

Spring may be for the warblers, but don't forget sparrows are moving too!! My fieldsites are covered in sparrows-- Chipping, Song, White-crowned, and Savannah!

What a lot of people still don't understand - and need to, ASAP - is that we humans are the biggest source of uncertainty in determining the magnitude future change. We are the problem. But that means we can be the solution, too.

“On current trends, the probability of staying below 2 °C of warming is only 5%, but if all countries meet their nationally determined contributions and continue to reduce emissions at the same rate after 2030, it rises to 26%.” nature.com/articles/s43247-0…

I'm up to 80 species so far for #2021WSB despite the birding feeling really slow. Highlights for me include Red-breasted Nuthatch (late for this date), White-eyed Vireo (hard to find in this county), and a sweep of the local swallow species.

To Map Billions of Cicadas, It Takes Thousands of Citizen Scientists. Hopefully, the Long Island map gets the attention of Long Islanders -- we're hoping they're still there (and not extinct). #cicadas #broodx #LongIsland bloomberg.com/news/features/…
