Download or read book Ireland s First written by Nigel Beers Smith and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-10-23 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the paperback edition. The hardback edition of this book is available, for the same price, at: www.IrelandsFirst.com I have been passionate about raptors ever since I can remember. I don't know what it is about them that attracts me, but this fascination brought me to Mountshannon, Lough Derg, County Clare to photograph the first Irish White Tailed Sea Eagles in over 100 years. This historic event was a huge eye-opener for me. I'd seen lots of birds of prey in my life, but never like this. I was able to see the same couple every day going about their business, building a nest, mating and raising young. From the beginning, this story just got better and better, until an unforeseen event made my heart sink. I thought it was all over, but it wasn't. Once again, the story picked up and became a huge success for Ireland's first White Tailed Sea Eagles in 100 years. This story needs to be read to understand how amazing these parents are, especially with all the hardships and heart-stopping moments that they had to deal with. I truly loved filming, photographing and documenting this historic event and I am very proud to have been a part of it. I really hope you enjoy this photographic book. I wish these magnificent birds all the luck in the world. I hope that they live long and in a few years come back to Lough Derg to reproduce. Hopefully, I'll be there to film them!
Download or read book Australasian Eagles and Eagle like Birds written by Stephen Debus and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2017-08 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eagles are awe-inspiring birds that have influenced much human endeavour. Australia is home to three eagle species, and in Melanesia there are four additional endemic species. A further three large Australian hawks are eagle-like. Eagles, being at the top of the food chain, are sensitive ecological barometers of human impact on the Earth’s ecosystem services, and all of the six Australian species covered in this book are threatened in at least some states (one also nationally). Three of the four Melanesian tropical forest endemics are threatened or near-threatened. In Australasian Eagles and Eagle-like Birds, Dr Stephen Debus provides a 25-year update of knowledge on these 10 species as a supplement to the Handbook of Australian, New Zealand and Antarctic Birds (HANZAB) and recent global treatises, based partly on his own field studies. Included are the first nest or prey records for some Melanesian species. This book places the Australasian species in their regional and global context, reviews their population status and threats, provides new information on their ecology, and suggests what needs to be done in order to ensure the future of these magnificent birds. Australasian Eagles and Eagle-like Birds is an invaluable resource for raptor biologists, birdwatchers, wildlife rescuers and carers, raptor rehabilitators and zookeepers.

Book excerpt: A collection of vibrant essays on climate change, and conservation to inform, stimulate and call every nature lover to action. “I can’t think of a more important book that’s been written about British wildlife in the past 20 years ... Roy Dennis [is] the UK’s pre-eminent conservationist of the past half century .." BBC Countryfile Magazine Through unparalleled expertise as a field naturalist, Roy Dennis is able to write about the natural world in a way that considers both the problems and the progress in ecology and conservation. Beginning with cottongrass, whose snow-white blooms blow gently in the wind across the wetter moors and bogs, this is a year-round trove of insight and knowledge for anyone who cares about the natural world, from birdsong and biodiversity to sphagnum and species reintroduction. Written by one of the UK's most prominent advocates for rewilding, the essays have a clear message: Never give up on trying to conserve and restore wildlife and the wild places you cherish. It's essential to try and to succeed. And remember, it's never "if," but "when," and with climate chaos closing in, the time is now.

Download or read book Wedge tailed Eagle written by Penny Olsen and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2005-11-17 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Australia’s Wedge-tailed Eagle belongs to the family of eagles, which together span the world. Eagles are powerful predators, with exceptional powers of flight and sight. They may kill to survive, but they also sleep, play, enjoy a bath, make tender parents, and form lasting relationships. This book gives a comprehensive overview of Australia’s largest true eagle and one of the country’s few large predators and scavengers. First appearing in Aboriginal rock-paintings more than 5000 years ago, the Wedge-tailed Eagle was little more than a curiosity to the early European settlers. The book traces the subsequent changes in perception—from its branding as a vicious sheep killer to an iconic species worthy of conservation—and covers distribution, habitat, hunting, relationships, reproduction and chick development. A final section deals with threats to the existence of this magnificent bird. Winner of the 2006 Whitley Award for Best Natural History of an Iconic Species.
