    Warning! This is not going to make you feel good. Off the bat, I can think of 4 species of birds that he hasn't mentioned.

    Sometimes nature is just too weird. I've told you about the Danish orchid that has a flower, that resembles a female wasp and secretes female wasp feromones, so it gets pollinated by horny male wasps, haven't I ?n

    In 1981 I worked on a Humming bird project in the Trinity Alps, California. Trying to validate the " Optimal foraging behaviour" theory, that had been put forth at that time. Basically, that animals, even the ones , we don't think of as "intelligent", go through thought processes about the value...

    Just me being ornery, as per usual. Could y'all also tell right away which one was going to come out on top. Pretty obvious from the body language , I thought. Don't know why the loser was even trying.

    Tell that to my right foot! Actually, my fellow Danes seem to be waking up a bit and joining me in my cultural insensitivity. We've just revoked the Danish citicenships from two arab guys who were born here, but decided to go down and fight for ISIS. Once theyve done their time in prison for...

    That is one thing I'm good at. Being culturally insensitive. Just read an article yesterday about how it is going in Germany with their " Wir schaffen es" attitude towards all the wonderful African/ arab immigrants. Well, they expected to have most of them in jobs real fast. Turns out that...

    I came across some guys in NZ, who were holding a party for a 16 year kid, because he had caught a large shark. It was hung outside the shack where they were partying. Apparently this was what had turned him from being a kid into being a real MAN. I was a bit confused by that. Since when...

    If you put your commercial glasses on, you'll se that it really isn't all that much smaller than the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Southern, and Arctic oceans, where Orcas usually roam. Hardly smaller, at all, really.
