BirdCast - Bird migration forecasts in real-time When, where, and how far will birds migrate? How many birds passed last night? Our tools help you explore the answers to these and many other questions about bird migration.

Technology at BirdCast.org allows anyone to view maps that predict the number of birds migrating while live maps show migration happening in real time. This lets people know when birds are nearby, so they can take necessary precautions to protect them.

You’re right - it’s not, evidently, avoidable - I’ve spent many hours, days, weeks and years doing it. I keep that quote above my desk to remind me to STOP.

It's good to hear your voice, you know it's been so long
If I don't get your calls, then everything goes wrong
I want to tell you something you've known all along

Don't leave me hanging on the telephone

The beginnings of fall foliage colours at a lake in Quebec, Canada.  The foreground is a large beaver pond, complete with a beaver lodge, and some floating weeds. Further back beyond the shoreline is a hillside with a wide range of fall leaf colour - from green to deep reds and everything in between.

β€œBreath by breath, let go of fear, expectation, anger, regret, cravings, frustration, fatigue. Let go of the need for approval. Let go of old judgments and opinions. Die to all that, and fly free. Soar in the freedom of desirelessness."

If you are afraid of death, be afraid. The point is to get with it, to let it take overβ€”fear, ghosts, pains, transience, dissolution and all. Indeed, you were kicked off the edge of a precipice when you were born, and it’s no help to cling to the rocks falling with you.
