From its earliest days, The Peregrine Fund has delib- erately managed to stay small, nimble, and flexible. I credit that adaptability for our suc- cess—and 2014 promises a lot more of both. Among the most heart-breaking transitions in the past year was the loss of two good friends and board members. Frank Bond, a Peregrine Fund founder and our legal counsel, provided invaluable advice and unwavering support for more than 40 years. We also lost Velma Morrison, a Boise philanthropist who enabled us to open the visitor center that bears her name. Their long and faithful commitment to raptor conservation will be greatly missed. The most sweeping transition is already underway in our recovery program for the Aplomado Falcon, an endangered species that occupied the American Southwest until the 1950s. For a quarter century, we worked to restore this beautiful raptor through captive breeding and releases to the wild. As a result, a small but self-sus- taining population is now thriving along the Gulf Coast of Texas. We have ended captive breeding and releases and, to “In the long history ensure the future well-being of these birds, shifted our focus of humankind (and to restoring the wide-open grasslands habitat the birds animal kind, too) need to survive. This brings us a step closer to seeing this fal- those who learned con removed from the U.S. Endangered Species List. We to collaborate and have honed our breeding and release skills over 43 years improvise most and they remain a valuable strategy for restoring California Condors and Orange-breasted Falcons. effectively have prevailed.” As I look ahead, I see our work through a lens that increas- ingly encompasses not just specific species but landscapes —Charles Darwin and ecosystems. Twenty-five years ago, we began taking a big-picture approach in Madagascar, where we have helped protect large swaths of habitat for birds of prey and all the plants and ani- mals they need to survive, including the people who coexist with them. Our newest project, which will examine the effects of climate change in the Arctic and its effects on the Gyrfalcon, adopts a similar landscape approach to solving exceedingly com- plex challenges. We adapt to new challenges with innovative problem-solving. We are human, so the transition is not easy, but I am confident that we are facing the future head-on, thanks to donors and supporters who inspire us daily with their loyalty, passion, and generosity.

    Tropical Birding Trip Report COSTA RICA: The Introtour (Group 1) Feb 2017 A Tropical Birding set departure tour COSTA RICA: The Introtour 13th - 23rd February 2017 (Group 1) Tour Leader: Sam Woods (Report and all photos by Sam Woods) This Keel-billed Toucan lit up our first afternoon, near Braulio Carrillo National Park. The same day also featured Thicket Antpitta and THREE species of owl during the daytime… Ferruginous Pygmy, Crested and Spectacled Owls. 1 www.tropicalbirding.com +1-409-515-9110 [email protected] Page Tropical Birding Trip Report COSTA RICA: The Introtour (Group 1) Feb 2017 INTRODUCTION There can be few countries in the World as welcoming to birders as Costa Rica; everywhere we went birds were plentiful and frequently people with binoculars were in attendance too. Indeed, Costa Rica makes you feel odd if you are NOT wearing a pair. We enjoyed a fantastic tour of some of the most revered sites in Costa Rican birding; we started out near San Jose in the dry Central Valley, before driving over to the Caribbean side, where foothill birding was done in and around Braulio Carrillo National Park, and held beautiful birds from the outset, like Black-and-yellow Tanager, Black-thighed Grosbeak, and daytime Spectacled and Crested Owls. A tour first was also provided by a Thicket Antpitta seen well by all. From there we continued downslope to the lowlands of that side, and the world famous La Selva Biological Station. La Selva is a place where birds feel particularly plentiful, and we racked up a heady list of birds on our one and a half days there, including Rufous and Broad-billed Motmots, Black-throated Trogon, Pale-billed, Cinnamon and Chestnut-colored Woodpeckers, Keel-billed and Yellow-throated Toucans, and Great Curassow, to name just a few of the highlights, which also included several two-toed sloths, the iconic Red-eyed Tree Frog (photo last page), and Strawberry Poison Dart Frogs of the much publicized “blue jeans” form that adorns so many tourist posters in this Sarapiqui region.

This verdant paradise has also long been a classic, premier destination for birdwatchers, and with good reason. The literal translation of Costa Rica means ‘rich coast’, and it is truly rich in birds, with over 900 species recorded in a country only the size of West Virginia. Ideally positioned at the meeting point where the avifauna of Central and South America intermingle, this small country hosts the highest avian diversity in an area of its size anywhere on Earth. However, Costa Rica hosts more than just an astonishingly rich diversity of birds. Along with neighboring Panama, this small country is one of the great centers of avian endemism in the world, with over 70 regional endemics that occur nowhere else! This carefully designed itinerary targets these regional endemics as well as numerous must-see, charismatic species, such as Resplendent Quetzal, Jabiru, Agami Heron, Sungrebe, King Vulture, Great Curassow, Scarlet Macaw, Great Green Macaw, Green-and-rufous Kingfisher, Zeledon’s, Bare-crowned, and Spotted Antbirds, Sharpbill, Lovely, Snowy, Turquoise, and Yellow-billed Cotingas, Silvery-fronted Tapaculo, Wrenthrush, Snowcap, Coppery-headed Emerald, Mangrove Hummingbird, and Black-cheeked Ant Tanager, among many more exciting antbirds, tanagers, woodpecker, trogons, and hummingbirds.

    Tropical Birding Trip Report COSTA RICA: The Introtour February 2019 A TROPICAL BIRDING set departure tour Costa Rica: The Introtour 11th - 21st February 2019 Tours Tour leader: Jose Illanes (all photos in report taken by Jose on this tour) Chestnut-colored Woodpecker was again very popular with this group on this tour (La Selva) INTRODUCTION: We had a great time of it on this tour of some of the best known birding sites in Costa Rica. While touring this special area, we racked up more than 400 species of birds, and over 380 of these were seen by the group. The clear winner of the bird of the tour competition was (perhaps unsurprisingly), the amazing Resplendent Quetzal, which we saw on multiple occasions after a shaky start looking for it. 1 www.tropicalbirding.com +1-409-515-9110 [email protected] Tropical Birding Trip Report COSTA RICA: The Introtour February 2019 There were so many other highlights that a simple, short list will not suffice, and so here were the other worthy mentions that trailed behind the quetzal in the stakes of best bird of the tour: American Pygmy-Kingfisher, Violet Sabrewing, Costa Rican Pygmy-Owl, White-whiskered Puffbird, Pearl Kite, Roseate Spoonbill, Chestnut-colored Woodpecker, Silvery- throated Jay, Long-tailed Manakin, Northern Emerald-Toucanet, Rufous-tailed Jacamar, and Turquoise-browed Motmot. During this classic tour of the country, we had dipped into some magnificent birding areas, such as the Central Valley close to San Jose, Braulio Carrillo National Park in the foothills of the Caribbean slope, La Selva Biological Station in the lowlands on that side of the mountains, the Oak-dominated cloudforests of the Savegre Valley, and the stunted vegetation of Cerro de la Muerte, yet higher still.

    >> PHOTOSPOT GUATEMALAN PYGMY OWL Guatemalan Pygmy Owl Glaucidium cobanense is a good species Steve N. G. Howell and Knut Eisermann New World pygmy owls have ridden a long, tumultuous and undoubtedly far from finished taxonomic journey, with numerous splits and new species making their way into the literature in the last 20 years. One enigmatic montane taxon is Glaucidium [gnoma] cobanense, which occurs in highland forests from northern Chiapas state, Mexico, through Guatemala to central Honduras. Its voice remained unknown into the 1990s, and its taxonomic status thus remained unresolved.

  • Family and Empire Between Britain, British Columbia and India, 1858-1901
    Relative Distances: Family and Empire between Britain, British Columbia and India, 1858-1901 Laura Mitsuyo Ishiguro UCL This thesis is submitted for the degree of PhD. I, Laura Mitsuyo Ishiguro, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 1 Abstract This thesis explores the entangled relationship between family and empire in the late-nineteenth-century British Empire. Using the correspondence of British families involved in British Columbia or India between 1858 and 1901, it argues that family letters worked to make imperial lives possible, sustainable and meaningful. This correspondence enabled Britons to come to terms with the personal separations that were necessary for the operation of empire; to negotiate the nature of shifting relationships across imperial distances; and to produce and transmit family forms of colonial knowledge. In these ways, Britons ‘at home’ and abroad used correspondence to navigate the meanings of empire through the prism of family, both in everyday separations and in moments of crisis. Overall, the thesis argues, letter-writing thus positioned the family as a key building block of empire that bound together distant and different places in deeply personal and widely experienced, if also tenuous and anxious, ways. The thesis follows a modular structure, with chapters that explore overlapping but distinct topics of correspondence: food, dress, death and letter- writing itself. Each of these offers a different lens onto the ways in which family correspondence linked Britain with India and British Columbia through intimate channels of affection, obligation, information and representation.

The backbone of the country is formed by a scenic mountain range, and here the cloud forests are home to exotic species including the unbelievable Resplendent Quetzal, Snowy and Turquoise Cotingas, Black Guan, Long-tailed and Orange-collared Manakins, Scarlet Macaw, Fiery- billed Aracari, Fiery-throated Hummingbird, Baird’s and Black-throated Trogons, Long-tailed Silky- flycatcher, Black-and-yellow Phainoptila, Wrenthrush and Golden-browed Chlorophonia. A wide variety of habitats that include the montane forests of the volcanic belt and the dry northern Pacific lowlands will be explored on our tour, and we can look forward to many striking species of trogons, toucans, motmots and hummingbirds, among many other spectacular birds. Thrilling birding, quality lodges and a relaxed pace make this destination perfect for anyone who has yet to experience the exciting avifauna of Central America!
