Tim of From the Faraway, Nearby has posted a series of superb posts, including a virtual album of photographs, resulting from his recent trip to the Peru’s Tambopata Nature Reserve in the Amazon in order to work with macaws as a volunteer for Earthwatch Institute. If you haven’t already seen these remarkable reflections of his trip, it’s a moral imperative that you do so now. The photos alone are National Geographic quality.
Then shifting from the far flung exotic to the down-right domestic, a message has reached me that a well known member of the Nature Blog Network and his lovely wife (who also may be a member of the network; to be honest, I haven’t checked - but if she’s not, she should be) are expecting their first child. As the message was not sent to me for publication, I can only hope the proud parents-to-be will leave a comment identifying themselves and receive the waves of congratulatory messages they so well deserve on such an occasion.
