The Pica pica hudsonia Magpie of Rocky mountain regions is a corvine bird..a nutcracker. A bird which collects things that have been discarded by others. Indeed he is a packrat and scavenger, and horder of his treasures. An interesting bird to watch, as I've said. But now the Macaw...there's a bird. I'd like to have one sitting on my shoulder while I leaned heavily on my wooden leg, toyed with the eyepatch covering me lost eye with the hook of a hand that I've earned, in search of truth and treasure. And while I listened to my parrot's talk, of our treasures buried low on an isle of few men's ken, I'd hoist me rum and swill 'er at the bar on No Man's Land..Arghhhh! But the Macaw is not so common: " Waiting for the Macaws. " The start of the twenty-first century also marked the start of what some are calling the Earth's sixth great extinction. Species are disappearing at an alarming rate, largely because of human activity. But humans have been interacting with the environment for thousands of years, not always with disastrous consequences. In his new book, " Waiting for the Macaws " , Canadian conservationist Terry Glavin explores this interaction, and offers some hope for how we can slow down, and maybe reverse the rapid disappearance of the planet's inhabitants. Plus - the improbable flight of the bumblebee. All this and more on Quirks & Quarks, Saturday right after the noon news on Radio One. CBC. Bob McDonald Host this is probably old potatoes but it may..just may..be of interest as well.........bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
