Birding Software

Yesterday, I purchased some birding software online called Aves Bird Watcher. Check the site out and read all about it. Cost is $29.99 and includes free upgrades for life.

I needed a journal type software to keep a record of birds I have seen, and with parameters such as adding pictures, weather conditions, location, habitat, notes, etc. This software has all of this and more! It even includes a voice/sound recorder, and it not only accepts images, but video too!

It will even make the pages of your journal or its record of birds into HTML documents to upload to your website, such as this database page of the American Bittern, and a page about a sighting of the American Bittern.

There are other software programs out there that do much more and have better databases of birds, but for now, this was my choice.

Was it a snake or an eel?

Seems to be some debate as to whether the Great Egret was eating a snake or an eel in this post. I have received comments on both this site and via email as to what others think it was. It is basically split with 15 thinking northern water snake and 14 thinking it was an eel.

I have enhanced and zoomed into the subject as best as possible, but because of the foggy conditions of that morning, I can only do so much.

Here are some more pictures that I worked with to the best of my ability. Please post any comments that you have at the end of this article under “Leave a passing comment »”.
