Featured reviews
4/5 Dino eggs
as a long time Dinophile and autodidact, the emergence of Jurassic world and its reborn dinosaurs has long held only the utmost of fascination as a field of academic inquiry for me. Without hesitation I purchased the Hammond package to inspect these resurrected anachronistic animal anomalies. I was delighted through and through by their appearance, and the presence of Jurassic era vermiform plant life only added to that acclaim. my only regret is that Hammond et al. had to cut corners with the amphibian DNA viz-a-viz hybridization. you don't need to be a birder to know that dinosaurs were feathered.
5/5
My son mason has always loved dinosaurs. more than trucks, more than soccer, more than video games. It was the dream of a lifetime to send him to the park walking footsteps of literal dinosaurs and giants in the field of paleontology. this was the perfect tour package for him--any other school trip is just a "paleo" imitation.

Südafrika 2019 - Teil 7
For my english speaking readers: power cuts, black outs and load shedding
10. Dezember 2019
Herrschaften und Oukies!
Was gibt es in unserem Gästehaus ein fulminates Frühstück! Der Hammer! Unsere Gastgeber Joos und Micky, ursprünglich aus dem niederländischen Eindhoven, sind absolute weltklasse.
Ein bisschen erinnern uns die Zwei an unsere Hosts in Irland. Historisches Haus, erbaut 1859 und nationales Monument, mit nur 4 Zimmern und sensationelle Gastgeber.
Erst gab es einen toll zurecht gemachten Früchteteller, danach gab es Sahnejoghurt mit Honig aus der Region (gibt´s im Farmladen gegenüber auch zu kaufen) und dazu frische Blaubeeren, dann kam ein Leinenbeutel mit frisch gebackenem Brot (noch warm) und Brötchen, dazu wurde eine Platte mit Schinken und Käse aus der Region serviert. Und wer jetzt meint, das wäre alles gewesen, der irrt, denn es kamen noch Spiegeleier mit Bacon. Was haben wir geschlemmt!
Um da ein paar Kalorien abzutrainieren haben wir heute eine klimaneutrale Dorfrunde zu Fuß gemacht. Was ist Montagu ein schönes Örtchen. So ein bisschen erinnert es uns an Lüderitz oder Swakopmund vor 20 Jahren. Es ist beschaulich, die Zäune sind, wenn überhaupt vorhanden, noch nicht ganz so hoch.
Gut, im Stadtpark lungern die üblichen verlausten Trunkenbolde herum, denen man schon die großen 3 vom AMT aus der Ferne ansieht: Aids, Malaria und Tuberkolose. Aber die Anzahl ist sehr übersichtlich.
Unser erstes Ziel unserer kleinen Wanderung war der Leidam. Der Leidam war bzw. ist der Dorfteich, der so um 1850 erbaut wurde. Aber die Gründerväter der Stadt waren clever und haben daraus ein Kanalsystem entwickelt, das jedem Haushalt der Stadt stundenweise Zugang zu fließendem Wasser ermöglichte. Was für ein Luxus für damalige Zeiten.
Das Kanalsystem existiert immer noch, wenn auch Teile davon heute verdeckt bzw. überbaut wurden. Der Teich (Leidam) existiert ebenfalls noch. Allerdings würde das Wasser heute auch niemand mehr haben wollen.
Denn in den letzten Jahrzehnten hat sich an eben diesem Dorfteich eine respektable Vogelpopulation etabliert. Der Dorfteich ist umringt von Akazien, Palmen und anderen Bäumen und das Gekreische von mehreren hundert Vögel hört man schon aus der Entfernung.
Das Odeur bekommt man erst mit, wenn man kurz davor ist und ist natürlich auch von der Windrichtung abhängig. Da jetzt Brutzeit ist, liegen unzählige Eierschalen auf dem Boden. In den Bäumen schaukeln die Nester mit den Jungvögeln.
Das klingt jetzt nicht alles so furchtbar interessant. Was das Besondere ist, es handelt sich mehrheitlich um eine riesen Population des heiligen Ibis. Dazu kommen noch ein paar Reiherarten, vornehmlich der Little Egret und der Kuhreiher.
Ein paar Webervögelnester, Nilgänse, Blesshühner und natürlich Kormorane. Hauptsächlich aber eben Ibisfamilien. Laut der Informationstafeln sollen dort noch viel mehr Arten vorkommen - für Birder ein Paradies!
Vor 10 Jahren wurde ein Unterstand zur Vogelbeobachtung gebaut. Dort saßen wir und schautem dem Spektakel zu, zumindest so lange, bis uns der Gestank zu viel wurde.
Wir laufen weiter die Bath Street entlang bis zur Holländischen Reformationskirche aus dem Jahre 1862. Was für hübsche, historische Häuser hier überall stehen. Richtige Schmuckstücke und liebevoll gepflegt.
Wir gehen wieder bis zur Haupstrasse, der Long Street, und besuchen die alte Missionskirche aus dem Jahre 1907. Darin befindet sich seit 1975 das örtliche Heimatmuseum. Das Heimatarchiv ist dort ebenfalls untergebracht.
Die alte Orgel, die Kanzlei, das kupferne Taufbecken, Familienbibeln, Hochzeitskleider und Taufkleider sind wichtige Teile der Sammlung. Das Museum erforscht bereits seit 1982 die Wirkung medizinaler Kräuter.
Ein paar Meter weiter, in Richtung des Malherbe Guesthouse, befindet sich das Joubert House aus dem Jahre 1853. Das Haus ist ebenfalls als nationales Denkmal eingestuft und beherbergt auch ein Museum.
In diesem Museum wird das Leben der Einwohner in der 2. Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts dargestellt. Die Tapete im Kon Birch Zimmer ist einmalig, da sie nach einem Muster der ursprünglichen Tapete reproduziert wurde.
Der Fußboden in der Küche und der Speisekammer besteht aus Pfirsich-Kernen, die nach einer sehr alten einheimischen Methode gelegt wurden. Man konnte sich es halt nicht leisten auch nur irgendeinen Rohstoff zu verschwenden.
Besonders stolz ist man jedoch darauf, dass im Jahre 1880 Präsident Paul Krüger, Piet Joubert und S.J. du Toit empfangen hat. Im Esszimmer sieht man das Geschirr aus dem die 3 damals gegessen haben sollen.
Bevor wir jetzt zurück ins Guesthouse gingen, querten wir einmal die Straße und kehrten im "The Rambling Rose" ein (offenbar handelt es sich bei dem Eigentümer um einen Cineasten). Ein entzückendes Café mit allerlei Krimskrams, Souvenirs, Bäckerei, Marmeladen, kleineren Gerichten und leckerem Kuchen.
Wir lachten herzlich über den abgepackten original "Dresdner Christstollen", der zwar tatsächlich aus Deutschland stammt, allerdings - aus Wickede an der Ruhr. Schöne globale Welt!
Fast pünktlich ereilte uns nach unserer Rückkehr ins Guesthouse natürlich wieder der nächste Power Cut. Dieser dauerte bis kurz nach 18 Uhr an. Wir gehen davon aus, dass der nächste heute Abend folgen wird.
Für morgen haben wir uns schon einen Plan gemacht, was wir alles erledigen müssen, wenn der Strom wieder da ist: Geld holen am Automaten, Auto betanken und im Spar einkaufen.
Micha lädt gerade wieder sämtliche Akkus, so lange es noch geht - und jetzt schnell noch duschen und Haare waschen, so lange die Wasserpumpen laufen...
Langsam haben wir den Kaffee auf! Man plant nur noch um die dämlichen Stromabschaltungen drumherum.
Es grüßen
Angie, Micha und der Hasenbär

West Sister Island National Wildlife Refuge Jerusalem Township, Lucas County Near Toledo, Ohio West Sister Island is an island of the state of Ohio located in the Western Basin of Lake Erie. The 82 acre island, jointly owned by the United States Coast Guard and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, is Ohio's only designated Wilderness Area, the West Sister Island National Wildlife Refuge. Most of the island is covered with trees. Tall hackberry trees make up most of the canopy, with with an understory of poison ivy 12 feet tall on the ground. Polygonatum or Great solomon's seal reaches 7-9 feet in height, and a great variety of ferns, wildflowers, mushrooms, and other plant life can also be found. The island, which is composed of glacial fill over a limestone shelf, is part of the Pelee Archipelago which also includes East Sister Island and Middle Sister Island (both in Ontario, Canada). West Sister Island is roughly 13 miles west of Rattlesnake Island, 14.5 miles east of Turtle Island, and 8.75 miles due north of the Ohio mainland. West Sister Island took its place in history during the War of 1812. This is the area where Commodore Oliver Perry defeated the British in the Battle of Lake Erie on September 10, 1813. It was after that battle that he sent his famous message to General William Harrison: "We have met the enemy and they are ours." In 1848 a lighthouse was built on the very west end of the island to mark the end of "the South Passage," a water route that threaded its way through Lake Erie's Bass Islands. The lighthouse was built on a stone foundation. The limestone and brick tower rises to a height of 55' and is still an active aid to navigation in the area. The Lighthouse Board report for 1866 noted that the structures on West Sister Island were starting to deteriorate. The requested funds were appropriated in 1867, and the lighthouse itself was refurbished in 1868; that was when a keeper's house was built on the property. A new boathouse was added to the station in 1868. A cistern used to hold rainwater served as the station’s only water supply until 1886, when a well was sunk through granite and water was obtained at a depth of thirty-two feet. A pier, consisting of a ninety-foot-long and sixteen-foot-wide timber crib that was filled with stone and decked over, was built in the fall of 1887, but it was destroyed by floating ice in February 1888. In 1889, a boat harbor was constructed 400 feet east of the tower in the form of an L-shaped pier, but it too was soon damaged by floating ice. Wrought-iron plates were later used to protect the station’s wharves from ice. A circular iron oil house was built atop a concrete foundation on the island and lined with brick in 1890. Prior to this, the oil for the lamp had been stored in the passageway between the tower and dwelling. During Prohibition years, the island was a popular stop used by bootleggers making the run across Lake Erie because the island provided a certain level of visual cover to hide themselves from watching on-shore eyes. When approached by these authorities in those days, the rum-runners would often dump their illegal stash overboard. Legend has it that bottles of prohibition-era alcohol can still be found littered on the bottom of the lake around the island. The lighthouse was automated in 1937 and the island was essentially abandoned by humans. The West Sister Island National Wildlife Refuge was established in 1937 by President Franklin D. Roosevelt "as a refuge and breeding ground for migratory birds and other wildlife...," specifically designated to protect the largest wading bird nesting colony on the U.S. Great Lakes. Ironically, after being established as a wildlife refuge in 1937, the island was used by the United States Army for artillery target practice for dive bombers during World War II. Some remnants are said to remain to this day. Although the wildlife population and the lighthouse were not significantly damaged, the keeper's house was destroyed. It is also reported that fuel tanks jettisoned by dive bombers can still be found on the island. West Sister Island National Wildlife Refuge is closed year round; no visitation is allowed. The refuge is managed by the staff of the Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge as a wilderness area, as provided under the Federal Wilderness Act. To protect it, public access is permitted for research only. The United States Congress designated the West Sister Island Wilderness in 1975 and it now has a total of 77 acres. All of this wilderness is located in Ohio and is managed by the Fish and Wildlife Service. U.S. Fish and Wildlife began a pilot program in 1997 designed to create nesting habitat for black-crowned night herons. As part of the program, about one acre of big trees is cut each season. This allows for re-sprouting and growth, slowly creating a shrub layer for black-crowned heron nests. The refuge, which has a surface area of 80.13 acres, was recognized in 2000 as part of a globally Important Bird Area. The wildlife refuge was featured in a 2007 episode of the Discovery Channel TV series Dirty Jobs with Mike Rowe. While all access to the island is restricted the West Sister Island lighthouse is visible from the south shore of Lake Erie or from a boat. There are some birdwatching opportunities on boats from a distance. Occasionally the Friends of the Ottawa NWR offers a guided cruise around the island coast for birders. This cruise does not land at the island, but does include researchers who discuss their work with the Island. West Sister Island's rookery is a host for great blue herons, common egrets, black-crowned night herons, and double-crested cormorants. Rock ledges along the island's shore provide sunning spots for many of West Sister's dense snake population. A permit to access the island is granted only for research purposes. Permits are issued by the Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge and even then, they can access the island only one day per year.

i have access to the photos from my friend’s mom’s birdbuddy feeder and i have been enjoying it. these two in particular are perfect
#it’s a cute gimmick and if you can afford one and are a beginner birder or can’t leave the house much i think it’s a good investment#however i don’t like that if the AI decides you have a certain bird you can’t change it? it says there was a WETA. it was another LEGO.#very different birds here!! and i can’t figure out how to fix it!#however the art and profiles for the birds is all cute. so there’s that.#fern is a birder

kasubi tombs, Rwenzori mountains and bwindi impenetrable; the world heritage sites of Uganda
The destination Uganda is one of the Africa Safari tour unique destinations featuring three of the world heritage sites as proclaimed by UNESCO.
The two of these are natural protected areas under the category National Parks namely Bwindi Impenetrable National Park – the main destination for Uganda gorilla safaris and Mount Rwenzori National Park – the epitome site for adventure vacation safaris in Uganda.
Bwindi Impenetrable National Park has been labelled by UNESCO as an isolated Afro montane forest of an incredible biological diversity including close to a half of the world’s population of the critically endangered Mountain Gorillas, 160 tree species and 100 fern species not forgetting 350 bird species of which 23 are endemic to the Albertine rift such as the African Green Broadbill which is normally sought after by birders on birding safaris in Uganda.
Rwenzori Mountains National Park which protects the snow-capped legendary Mountains of the moon rising to 5,109m above sea level to form the third highest peak on the African continent features fragile ecosystem and most importantly very unique montane flora which is rare in the world including groundsels, giant lobelias and giant heathers. The glaciers, lakes and waterfalls compliment its remarkable natural beauty.
The third World heritage site is cultural other than natural. Kasubi Tombs which are within Kampala City are burial grounds for Kings of Buganda. Apparently, four (4) royal tombs lie beneath a large traditional hut built in a circular dome shape with local materials. It is a great site with remarkable intangible values of spirituality, belief, identity and continuity.
The above world heritage sites combine to justify Uganda’s incredible beauty and its crown as the Pearl of Africa.
