Hey fellow birders,
I just wanted to alert you all to my newest venture studying amazing birds
at Danum Valley in Borneo. I've launched a Kickstarter campaign The Babbler
& Bulbul Project
<https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/babandbul/the-babbler-and-bulbul-project>
featuring my pics and field stories, with lots more to come!
*Tired of artificial intelligence, virtual reality, embattled models,
litigious simulations, and the whole extortion lifestyle? Plain exhausted
and yearning for a good ol' reality check?*
This is it: Join our team on our first field season tagging wild forest
birds at Danum Valley, one of the richest lowland rainforests in Southeast
Asia on the Island of Borneo!
No simulations, no models, just real stuff: real birds, real data, real
photographs, real challenges, real stories--and real people using real
intelligence to collaborate across countries, cooperate across cultures,
and conduct fundamental research for basic science--to better understand
our world and the creatures that actually live here.
Traditional scientific funding is under new scrutiny. This is your chance
to support innovative and collaborative research with deep content. The
birds are spectacular, the forest context is unique--and the authentic
challenges and difficulties we face are better than, well, scripted reality
shows!
Check out our project (involves four Washington birders this year!), sign
up for our blog and check out the original art, science-based classes on
birds and birding, or field trips with Dan Froehlich, ornithologist and
tour guide.
Cheers,
Dan
