Australian mammal extinctions

"Where cats and foxes are abundant, there should be fewer native mammals."

"Tragically, Australia is the world leader in mammal extinctions. About 40 species have gone extinct in the 238 years since European colonisation began, and nearly 80 species are now imperilled. It’s essential we understand what factors caused these extinctions and ongoing decline."

Yes, feral cats and foxes really have driven many Australian mammals to extinction

Decades of evidence link foxes and feral cats with extinctions of Australian mammals. Claims these introduced predators aren’t responsible don’t stack up.

I thought I was setting up a nice, charitable buffet for the neighborhood birds. Turns out, I’ve actually just hired a very demanding, barefoot site manager-and yes, he’s conducting inspections.

New video out!
This week we're taking a brief intermission from the summertime wildlife travels to share a little something different: a winter run I made with family up to visit Wind Cave National Park! The cave was finally open to tours again so we took advantage, and I put together a short "tour" of my own for you! Of course it's more visual here than anything, so I strongly encourage making your own visit if you can, it's a unique cave with some very particular formations that are exceedingly uncommon. And as a bonus, as we left the park it couldn't leave us without some sort of animal encounter, so we got some very nice footage of a small pack of local coyotes lounging around one of the prairie dog towns!

Two bird learnings for today. I've had trouble identifying a couple of birds for a long while. Using a telephoto lens really helped.

1. There's a variety of little birds that have thrown me off for some time. I could never quite pin them down until today, when I finally got a good look at the back of their heads and realized they were Ruby-crowned Kinglets! I never had binos or a good lens on hand when I see them and, without the red crown flaring, I missed the subtle red dot. Mystery solved! (I'll include a meh photo I took today that shows the elusive red spot).

2. Turns out those dark little birds have been Dark-eyed Junco all along. I had presumed they would be larger, which I need to stop doing for birds. I was also getting confused by their variety in color. Thanks to their pink beaks and song, I think I finally have them down now. Another mystery solved.

A White-tailed Deer (Odocoileus virginianus) was eating henbit near a concrete driveway in Norman, Oklahoma, United States on January 1, 2026. Deer are common suburban wildlife here and henbit (Lamium amplexicaule) is a tasty non native plant.

Bonsoir les mastoufoux !

Je déclare ce jour, le chardonneret élégant, Roi du cirque au jardin ! 😁

DÊmonstration : D'abord son masque facial rouge et noir, ça lui donne incontestablement des allures de petit clown, tout le monde sera d'accord là-dessus. Et puis son extraordinaire agilitÊ, perchÊ sur des lianes de chèvrefeuille, je considère que ça lui ouvre direct le titre de meilleur acrobate sur corde lisse.

It's been a while since I posted, but Lopa the vixen has been a regular visitor this past week or so. I took this photo last night. She's looking in great condition. We've also spotted a dog fox nearby, which makes sense as this is prime breeding season. permuted.org.uk/photography/fo… #fox #nature #wildlife #photography

Eine Rohrdommel steht auf der Eisfläche eines zugefrorenen Sees. Das braun-beige gemusterte Gefieder hebt sich sanft von den kühlen Blautönen des Eises ab und harmoniert mit den trockenen Schilfhalmen im Vordergrund. Der Vogel hält den Schnabel leicht nach oben gerichtet – eine typische Tarnhaltung, die Ruhe, Konzentration und winterliche Stille ausstrahlt.

A bittern stands on the frozen surface of a lake. Its brown and beige patterned plumage contrasts gently with the cool blue tones of the ice and blends with the dry reeds in the foreground. The bird holds its bill slightly upward, a typical camouflage posture that conveys calm, focus, and winter stillness.

Tan with a Touch of Fire

I’m not especially pleased with how this image of a female Northern Cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis) turned out. The original was too noisy, and I couldn’t quite smooth it out the way I wanted. Still, I liked the way her crest leans sassily to one side, so I thought I’d share.

If you’re captivated by northern cardinals and other members of the Cardinalidae family—better known as the cardinal family—step into my photo gallery for a visual feast. Come take a look:

#photo #photography #photographer #photographylovers #wildlife #nature #bird #birds #birding #birdwatching #birdphotography #NorthernCardinal

"Perched quietly on a weathered wooden surface, the female Northern Cardinal holds a gentle, dignified pose. Her body is angled slightly forward, crest raised like a soft flame of feathers atop her head. Her plumage is a warm blend of buff tan and soft brown, with subtle washes of reddish-orange brushing her wings and tail—like the last light of sunset caught in motion. Her beak is a bold orange, smooth and conical, standing out like a polished gem against the muted tones of her face. The background is a soft blur of green, likely foliage, rendered in a way that makes her form pop with clarity. The texture of her feathers is visible even in stillness—fine, layered, and slightly ruffled at the edges, as if she’s just settled from flight. Her eye is dark and round, alert but calm, giving her an air of quiet watchfulness. There’s no clutter, no distraction—just the bird, the perch, and the soft green hush behind her. This is not a moment of action, but of presence. She is still, but not passive. She holds the space with quiet authority, like a sentinel of the morning." - Microsoft Copilot
