http://focusingonwildlife.com/lead-shot-for-dove-hunting-prohibited-in-iowa.html <p>Corncrake is an iconic species in Northern Ireland that migrates here from South Africa every spring. Although a very secretive bird it is their distinctive call that gives these birds their iconic status. In the early summer months, the evening mating call of the corncrake was once deafening as it rang through fields of long grass across Northern Ireland’s countryside.</p> <p><a href="http://focusingonwildlife.com/answering-the-call-of-corncrakes.html#corncrake1"><img src="http://focusingonwildlife.com/banners/corncrake1-thumb.jpg"></a>&nbsp;<a href="http://focusingonwildlife.com/answering-the-call-of-corncrakes.html#corncrake2"><img src="http://focusingonwildlife.com/banners/corncrake2-thumb.jpg"></a>&nbsp;<a href="http://focusingonwildlife.com/answering-the-call-of-corncrakes.html#corncrake3"><img src="http://focusingonwildlife.com/banners/corncrake3-thumb.jpg"></a></p> <p><a href="http://focusingonwildlife.com/answering-the-call-of-corncrakes.html">Read full article&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?a=9kalwRhBj40:4hg-7bGM7JI:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?a=9kalwRhBj40:4hg-7bGM7JI:dnMXMwOfBR0"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?d=dnMXMwOfBR0" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?a=9kalwRhBj40:4hg-7bGM7JI:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?i=9kalwRhBj40:4hg-7bGM7JI:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?a=9kalwRhBj40:4hg-7bGM7JI:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?a=9kalwRhBj40:4hg-7bGM7JI:gIN9vFwOqvQ"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?i=9kalwRhBj40:4hg-7bGM7JI:gIN9vFwOqvQ" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/focusingonwildlife/eTik/~4/9kalwRhBj40" height="1" width="1"/> http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/focusingonwildlife/eTik/~3/9kalwRhBj40/answering-the-call-of-corncrakes.html 1c99745d-0ca9-4605-ac02-19229d713be9 Fri, 15 Jul 2011 14:33:20 GMT http://focusingonwildlife.com/answering-the-call-of-corncrakes.html <p>The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service this week announced its intent to begin cleaning up toxic, lead-based paint at federal facilities on Midway Atoll that kills up to 10,000 Laysan albatross chicks each year and also threatens the endangered Laysan duck. The announcement came after the Center for Biological Diversity issued a notice of intent to sue the Service and affiliated agencies in 2010 for their failure to remediate the hazardous waste hurting the birds, in violation of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, Endangered Species Act and Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. The Service’s action memorandum authorizes cleanup to begin this month.</p> <p><a href="http://focusingonwildlife.com/lead-poisoning-threatens-vulnerable-albatross-population.html#laysan-albatross1"><img src="http://focusingonwildlife.com/banners/laysan-albatross1-thumb.jpg"></a>&nbsp;<a href="http://focusingonwildlife.com/lead-poisoning-threatens-vulnerable-albatross-population.html#laysan-albatross2"><img src="http://focusingonwildlife.com/banners/laysan-albatross2-thumb.jpg"></a>&nbsp;<a href="http://bit.ly/pn0Iex"><img src="http://bit.ly/pQ0XeH"></a></p> <p><a href="http://focusingonwildlife.com/lead-poisoning-threatens-vulnerable-albatross-population.html">Read full article</a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?a=Cp6JDqPt8rM:6HGgI_60A3w:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?a=Cp6JDqPt8rM:6HGgI_60A3w:dnMXMwOfBR0"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?d=dnMXMwOfBR0" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?a=Cp6JDqPt8rM:6HGgI_60A3w:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?i=Cp6JDqPt8rM:6HGgI_60A3w:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?a=Cp6JDqPt8rM:6HGgI_60A3w:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?a=Cp6JDqPt8rM:6HGgI_60A3w:gIN9vFwOqvQ"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?i=Cp6JDqPt8rM:6HGgI_60A3w:gIN9vFwOqvQ" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/focusingonwildlife/eTik/~4/Cp6JDqPt8rM" height="1" width="1"/> http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/focusingonwildlife/eTik/~3/Cp6JDqPt8rM/lead-poisoning-threatens-vulnerable-albatross-population.html 341859fb-2a7f-4134-9a03-b10ab72db4f8 Thu, 14 Jul 2011 15:22:10 GMT http://focusingonwildlife.com/lead-poisoning-threatens-vulnerable-albatross-population.html <p>Birdwatchers from across Asia and beyond flock to Cambodia's forests for a glimpse of two of the world's rarest birds: the giant ibis and its cousin the white-shouldered ibis. Each year, the birders follow the birds to their nesting grounds at the outskirts of Tmatboey, a rural Cambodian village some 200 miles north of Phnom Penh. Under the protection of the Tmatboey villagers, the ibises breed, nest, and raise their chicks. In return for their contribution to the birds' conservation, WCS worked with the community to develop an eco-tourism project. </p> <p><a href="http://focusingonwildlife.com/sacred-nesting-grounds-of-the-ibis.html"><img src="http://focusingonwildlife.com/banners/giant-ibis1-thumb.jpg"></a>&nbsp;<a href="http://focusingonwildlife.com/sacred-nesting-grounds-of-the-ibis.html"><img src="http://focusingonwildlife.com/banners/giant-ibis3-thumb.jpg"></a></p> <p><a href="http://focusingonwildlife.com/sacred-nesting-grounds-of-the-ibis.html">View video "Sacred Nesting Grounds of the Ibis"</a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?a=UoYOhcmzGZU:YcAd8HysvRs:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?a=UoYOhcmzGZU:YcAd8HysvRs:dnMXMwOfBR0"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?d=dnMXMwOfBR0" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?a=UoYOhcmzGZU:YcAd8HysvRs:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?i=UoYOhcmzGZU:YcAd8HysvRs:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?a=UoYOhcmzGZU:YcAd8HysvRs:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?a=UoYOhcmzGZU:YcAd8HysvRs:gIN9vFwOqvQ"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/focusingonwildlife/eTik?i=UoYOhcmzGZU:YcAd8HysvRs:gIN9vFwOqvQ" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/focusingonwildlife/eTik/~4/UoYOhcmzGZU" height="1" width="1"/> http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/focusingonwildlife/eTik/~3/UoYOhcmzGZU/sacred-nesting-grounds-of-the-ibis.html ca44de09-3845-499c-9a95-1bab702b7f83 Wed, 13 Jul 2011 19:54:32 GMT http://focusingonwildlife.com/sacred-nesting-grounds-of-the-ibis.html <p class="style4">Maltese law courts yesterday sentenced a hunter to two years imprisonment and a €9,000 fine, and another to one year imprisonment and a €5000 fine, for the targeting of White Storks on the 18th May this year.
