You do not necessarily have to be a bird lover to enjoy the charm that little bird houses can add to your outdoor spaces. Actually, in recent years they have become quite popular and a novelty that is at home in many homes. Whether they are used outside in the yard itself or on a porch or patio, birds are really attracted to them. It is a delight to sit outside and watch the fluttering creatures fly back and forth into a special home that you provided for them. As for those that love to bird watch, these small houses are yard ornaments that they can not bear to be without.

You can purchase ready made bird houses in a variety of sixes, shapes, colors, and styles. They can look like miniature homes, stores, or fire stations. Almost any kind of dwelling that people might use,someone has crafted a smaller version just for birds. They can be hand painted and decorated brightly. This will sometimes attract birds. The openings can be made differently because some birds like there homes a little more private than others. When a wild bird chooses a home that you have set up for them, they will build their nest inside and use it to lay their eggs and hatch their young just as they would in a nest they built in a tree or in a bush.

If there is someone in your life that loves to work outdoors in their yard, a birdhouse or two might be a perfect gift to give them on almost any occasion. Of course, they are perfect for someone who already is an avid foul fan, they would appreciate one anytime. If they have bird feeders in their yard, bird houses would be a wonderful addition. There is no better way to attract a variety of birds than with an ample supply of seed and when they have a ready made home where that food supply is, you are almost guaranteed to have a steady flurry of flying activity at your home.

Sometimes birds will come back year after year to nest. Adding other attractions for them like hummingbird feeders and bird baths only add to the appeal. You can furnish every thing they need by just putting these few things anywhere appropriate on your lawn. You do not have to spend a lot of money to have your own bird haven.

Unfortunately, the cost of energy to power our homes continues to increase. More and more people are looking for alternate forms of energy, like wind power and solar. Learn how to save energy by building your own solar panels; this can save you thousands of dollars in energy bills in the long run. It’s also a green option that’s good for the environment.

While many of us would love to have a professionally installed, high-powered solar panel, the reality is that a system like this is very costly to install. In fact, depending on how sophisticated of a system you choose, this could easily run you into the tens of thousands of dollars. But, if you build your own solar panels, you’re looking at perhaps a couple of hundred dollars.

If you aren’t very mechanically or technologically astute, you might worry that it will be difficult to build your own solar panel. While it will certainly require a bit of research, you can save a ton of money by powering your home solar. Learn to build your own solar panel with the wealth of resources available on the Internet.

While it will require some learning, you should know that you can easily purchase DIY solar panel kits that include the necessary parts and instructions, or you can locate the components individually and find general directions for completing the project. Whichever route you take, this will undoubtedly be far less expensive than a professional solar panel installation. This makes solar power accessible for people who otherwise would not be able to afford it.

What you might not realize is just how valuable it can be to generate your own energy using a homemade solar panel. In fact, you can cut your electric bill anywhere from fifty to ninety percent just by investing a few hours of time to learn to create your own solar power.

Another way that powering your home with solar energy can save you money is through tax benefits. Many people are unaware that the cost of making environmentally friendly improvements to your home can often be claimed as a tax deduction.

What’s more, if your system allows you to capture more energy than you actually use, many utility companies will actually buy some of your energy from you. In this case, you not only save money, but you actually earn money on your investment! Plus, you’re helping generate green energy that can be used to supplement general power needs when the supply is low.

Another great benefit of a solar powered home is that power outages will no longer affect you, since you won’t have to rely on the power grid of the municipality in which you live. As long as your system receives adequate sunlight, you’ll have power even when everyone else around you is in the dark.

When it comes to going solar, learn how you can build your own solar panel to save you time, hassle, and money. While it requires a bit of an investment of time and money to begin with, it’s an investment that is sure to pay off in the long run.

Under the canopy of trees seen from the highways and just out of sight along the busy streets are some of Austin’s hidden treasures, and the city is about to add another one. This fall ground will be broken for phase 1 of a new hike and bike trail to be called the Walk for a Day trail. This approximately 35-mile trail will wind its way through parks and neighborhoods from Zilker Park to Kyle.

Completion of the whole project is still a good five years away, maybe even ten years if funding bogs down. But work on phase 1, which will connect existing trails between the Barton Creek Greenbelt and the City of Sunset Valley, will hopefully be completed by next spring.

The price tag for phase 1 alone is $250,000. According to the Community Impact Newspaper, the project’s main funding and planning comes from the nonprofit Hill Country Conservancy preservation group. “George Cofer, HCC executive director, said phase 1 will allow people to enjoy miles of trail even while work continues on subsequent phases.”

This project has been in the works since November 2007 and combines the efforts of the HCC with Austin Parks and Recreation Department, American YouthWorks, the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center, the Austin Ridge Riders, as well as other individuals. According to the Austin-American Statesman, the project has received a $200,000 Recreational Trail Grant from the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, as well as $50,000 from the Hill Country Conservancy and $10,000 from the Austin Parks Foundation.

Most of the labor for the project will be volunteers, starting with a special work day coinciding with National Trail Day on June 6. Salt Lick Barbecue will be provided for volunteers and swimming is free all day at Barton Springs Pool.

An interesting component of this project is its connection with American YouthWorks. The local organization is using its Environmental Core Program to connect at-risk youths with the environment. HCC has hired the nonprofit to provide labor for the trail project. This will provide an opportunity for the youths ages 17-27 to learn job skills while connecting with nature in their community. Working on the project will give the young people experience with high level skills such as masonry work, erosion control and conservation efforts.

The hope is that the Walk for a Day trail will someday join a network of trails through several Texas counties. The $7.5 million project has the potential to allow people to leave their cars behind and hike or ride to all kinds of fun destinations throughout the Hill Country. Imagine packing up in the morning and taking a hike to Barton Springs Pool for the day or hiking to the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center to spend a beautiful spring day. “This is going to be one of the best trail systems that was ever built,” Cofer said. “It’s a big deal.”

For most of human history, our ancestors strongly identified themselves as an intrinsic part of nature. The basic thesis of this article is that the environmental catastrophe that is now rapidly occurring is a direct result of a large subgroup of our species becoming disconnected from this deep love of nature and an equally deep sense of unity with it.

As I view the environmental destruction that humans have perpetrated upon our planet from the vantage point of my 35-year career as a psychotherapist, I’m impressed with how it strongly parallels the pathological self-destructive behavior of many of my past clients who suffered from dissociative identity disorder.

People subject to this personality disorder display two or more distinct identities, personalities, or ego states each of which entails uniquely different patterns of perceiving and interacting with their environment and which alternately take control of their behavior. These alternative personalities are generally completely dissociated from each other, that is, have no awareness of each other’s existence.

When these individuals shift into an ego state that is dissociated from their pre-morbid, dominant personality structure, they commonly behave in ways that are sharply out of character and often highly self-destructive. Typically, after returning to their prevailing personality organization, they show no conscious awareness of what they’ve done while in a dissociated state.

So how is this related to our current environmental and climate change crisis? Let me try to spell it out as simply as possible.

For nearly 200,000 years before the advent of the agricultural revolution about 10,000 years ago, our hunting and gathering ancestors had a strong, collective identification with all of nature. Constantly surrounded as they were by nature and interacting with it on a daily basis, they became intimately aware of the intricate interdependence of all plants and animals.

Moreover, since their very survival depended on living in harmony with the rest of nature, it is not at all surprising that they developed and maintained a deep intuitive sense of oneness with the natural web of life and that they adapted themselves to it accordingly.

Given this dominant collective identity or personality,so to speak, inflicting unnecessary harm on other parts of nature was seen as senseless, repugnant and self-destructive.

This prevailing identity and attitude toward nature has been documented in anthropological research over the past 150 years with many indigenous groups of hunters and gatherers before they fell under the domination of western civilization.

Among Native Americans, for example, it is strongly exemplified in their strong core philosophy about the sacred hoop of life. This is expressed elegantly in the simple Lakota Sioux prayer, Mitakuye Oyasin,that is commonly offered as a blessing to all of my relations.

This deep affinity and respect for all life forms has been postulated by Dr. Edward O. Wilson, a highly respected entomologist and professor Emeritus at Harvard University, to be intrinsically coded into the human genotype. He refers to it as biophilia, literally “love of life”.

This intrinsic love of nature, including all of its the myriad life forms, is present almost universally in young children and in a large proportion of adults as well, at least in relation to their pets and gardens. It is also expressed in a strong propensity in many of us to seek solace and personal renewal in natural settings. Clearly, many of us continue to be ardent nature lovers throughout our lives.

By and large, however, as we have become progressively civilized over the past 10,000 years and, especially, since the start of the Industrial a significantly large segment of our species has become increasingly dissociated from its original strong identification with nature.

This progressive alienation from nature has been strongly associated with the prevailing patriarchic organization of modern civilized societies with its strong emphasis on controlling and dominating nature. A basic, unquestioned (and highly arrogant) assumption in this worldview is that humans are inherently superior to all other species and, thus, have an equally inherent right to use and control them however they choose.

With the relatively recent rise of feminism, this view, along with its patriarchic underpinnings, has been strongly challenged; it continues, however, to be a strongly dominant paradigm in the world today. One of its most cardinal characteristics is that it is profoundly dissociated from our original strong identification with all of nature.

I submit, then, that the relatively recent development of this dominant social paradigm can be understood as a collective dissociative identity disorder. Just as the individual form of this disorder tends to be personally self-destructive, the collective form has likewise brought about profound destructive consequences for our entire planet and all of its life forms. It has, in fact, brought us to the very brink of unprecedented disaster.

Unless, as a species, we quickly find effective ways to become re-integrated with our original strong identification with nature, our collective future looks very bleak indeed.

In closing, I’d like to offer one striking and tragic illustration of this dissociative identity disorder in action. It’s a video that documents the aerial killing of wolves in Alaska. Disturbing as it is in its own right, it provides in a much larger sense a strong metaphor for the much larger wanton killing and generalized destructiveness that humans have inflicted on the earth.

Managing and raising honey bees is an all season year round process. Even though the art of beekeeping is commonly regarded as taking place only in warm months, raising honey bees requires proper management all year round. Managing your bees can be a fun experience if you continue to work at it all year round.

Beekeepers have often suffered losses of their honey bees, but in the past those losses were slow and the beekeeper was easily able to find the cause, usually a bacteria, mite or some other pathogen and take appropriate action. Not so with the recent colony collapse disorder, (sometimes called colony collapse syndrome or colony collapse disease). With this colony collapse disorder, more bees have been dying faster with no obvious reason and because only the queen and a few workers are left alive the colony dies.

If you want to get the honey from your beehive you may be obliged to extract the honey from the honey comb itself. This is where a honey extractor comes into play. You can buy one for $200 to $400. If there are other known beekeepers in your area you can pool your funds and buy one to share.

The common perception of a honeybee is the insect that has five eyes, two wings, and makes honey. What most people fail to realize is that honeybees have a lot more to them then these simple assumptions. For instance, they were brought here from Europe in the 1600’s, and since then honeybees have become widespread across North America and are bred commercially for the ability to produce honey.

Honey bees are vitally important pollinators because they can be managed and easily moved to crop sites. They are biological indicators as well, meaning that their status is a reflection of the health of the general environment. If true, bee losses may be the beginning of a much larger environmental problem.

As you discover more about beekeeping, remember the honey bees know what they are doing. As a beekeeper you are attempting to manage them for your own benefit, for their honey and their pollination services. Although bumblebees are much better pollinators, they are too few in numbers to meet our needs, which is the pollination of one third of what we eat, vegetables, fruits and nuts such as almonds.

If one has some space to spare, you could offer a corner of your garden to a local beekeeper as a place to keep a hive or two. They will need to have regular access, so keep this in mind when considering a site.
The most essential piece of equipment that is required for beekeeping is the bee hive itself.

You should take some time to figure out the structure and the necessity of the bee hive. It is not like you are required to go out and get yourself a natural bee hive from out of a tree. This is not at all advocated as these little insects are very possessive of their home and the residents so you may just as well land yourself in bed with several stings that may also prove fatal from time to time.

It’s easy enough to put flower beds along the front walk, next to the house, or by the door, but what do you do when you have a large garden area where you don’t want to put sod and yet don’t want to have the maintenance work associated with putting in yet another flower garden? There are some great ways to incorporate an awkward area like this into your overall landscaping: here are some innovative ways to make that area look great.

Xeriscape it

Xeriscaping has long been a popular landscaping approach in the desert southwest, where water is at a premium and where conservation is king. The idea behind xeriscaping is to cut down on the amount of lawn grass areas through the use of indigenous plantings and rock landscaping.

The resulting look is incredibly charming and very unusual: in the west, tufts of native grasses are combined with flowering shrubs to create a textured, multi-colored look that keeps its interesting appearance all summer long. Different colors of pebbles or rocks are laid over black plastic (to keep down weeds) and are often used to create intricate and artistic mosaics right in the garden. Xeriscaping requires very little if any outside watering, and so it is stunningly (and refreshingly) low maintenance.

Although it is common practice for gardeners in the desert southwest, there’s no reason why the concept cannot be used in more temperate areas of the country that get regular rainfall. Check with your local nursery to find out what kinds of indigenous grasses, shrubs, and flowers would do well in your particular climate.

Go for the unusual

There are many plants that will spread rapidly and cover large areas without any problem at all. The issue is often that these plants can go absolutely wild if left unchecked, so people hesitate to put them in. The situation can be remedied and this kind of landscaping enjoyed as long as the gardener does his homework, places the plants properly, and does a little preparation first. Plants such as Bishop’s Weed are beautiful and prolific, but they tend to take over and choke everything else out. Try planting a beautiful flowering tree in your large, bare area, plant Bishop’s Weed underneath it, and surround the area with concrete or other edging. It will be lovely and virtually no maintenance.

If you are lucky enough to live in semi-tropical climes such as Louisiana, your options are many. Bamboo thrives in the Pelican State and other similar places and there are a host of varieties to choose from. If you have a large part of your garden that you don’t know what to do with (as in acres of space), you can plant giant Moso bamboo that will create a virtual forest in your backyard within a few years.

Creating beauty in unused garden space just takes a little ingenuity and a willingness to try something new and different: the results will make the effort well worth your while.

Millions of people around the world use oceans, pools, and lakes for all sorts of recreational activities. There are many activities that are fun for individuals and families. Because of the wide range of options, water activities are a pastime that shows no signs of declining in the future.

The following is a list of the water activities enjoyed by many throughout the world:

Swimming: Whether it is a pool, lake, or ocean, swimming is a past time enjoyed by many people.

Water Polo: This water sport consists of two teams and a ball. It is often described as a combination of swimming, football (soccer), basketball, and wrestling. A team consists of six field players and one goalie. The purpose of the game is to score as many goals as possible.

Snorkeling: This activity consists of swimming at the surface of the water and using a mask and a small tube called a snorkel.

Water Aerobics: This form of aerobics is performed in the water.

Water Slide: Fun for all ages, a water slide is a slide with water flowing down it.

Scuba Diving: consists of is swimming under water using a (self contained) breathing apparatus and scuba mask.

Underwater Photography: This activity involves taking pictures under water. There are many contests involved with Underwater Photography.

Boating: This is the use of boats on the water. This can include rowboats, motor boats, canoes, kayaks, sailboats, luxury cruise ships, fishing boats, yachts, speed boats, hydroplane racing… etc.

Fishing: This recreational or business activity involves catching fish.

Kite Surfing: This sport involves traveling on water using a kite for propulsion.

Water Skiing: This water sport involves using skis to glide over the water while being pulled by a motor boat.

Wakeboarding: This sport is much like water skiing, but involves using only one board attached to the feet.

Wakeskating: This activity is much like wakeboarding, but the board is not attached to the feet

Windsurfing: This involves traveling on a board that uses wind to propel sails.

Synchronized swimming: This involves a combination of swimming, gymnastics, and ballet.

Free-Diving: The goal of this activity is to dive as deep as you can without using a breathing apparatus.

Bodyboarding: This sport is similar to surfing, but the board is smaller and the person lies down on the board.

Dragon Boat Racing: This sport involves teams paddling on water, using painted boats which are attached to decorative dragon heads and tails. The length of the race can be 500 meters and the normal crew number is 22, including 20 paddlers, 1 steer person and 1 drummer.

Fin swimming: This is swimming with fins

Water Aerobics: This exercise is aerobics in the water

Water Tubing: This fun pastime involves sitting in a water tube and being pulled by a motor boat.

Rafting: This involves traveling on a raft down a river.

White Water Rafting: This type of rafting involves traveling in a boat like a kayak through rough river waters.

Jet Ski: A jet ski is a mechanical device used to travel on the water.

Because there are so many activities that involve the use of water, there is usually an activity for everyone to enjoy.

A great way to thoroughly enjoy all these activities is by browsing through Blue Mountain accommodations for the right rooms. For less of an outdoor-feeling, you might want to consider Blue Mountain condo rentals.

Research and studies have always been an important part of learning how our world works, what’s happening to it, and what we can do to minimize the impact our presence has on it. To minimize our presence and collect accurate information, the camera trap has been an important addition to the world of research.

Camera traps have given researchers an eye into the natural world while making their presence virtually undetectable. As a result, experts around the globe have had the opportunity to learn and discover things we never could have imagined. If you need a trail cam for your next project, there are a few different factors to consider before making your purchase:

Finding The Right Balance Between Trigger Speed And Detection Zone Size

For researchers, the trigger speed and detection zone size of a camera trap is very important. The level of each that they choose depends solely on what it is being used for and where. For example, it you are attempting to catch animals as they move down a specific trail, you need to select a camera that is able to capture a large area (has a large detection zone). However, because the animal won’t be standing around and posing for any pictures, you need camera traps with a fast trigger speed.

Alternatively, if you are targeting a feeding area or baiting your targeted animal, speed isn’t as important. In fact, the quality of the pictures will depend more on how well you line everything up according to the bait or feeding area than the speed and size of the detection zone.

Camera Trap Durability

Camera traps, like any other equipment, come with varying degrees of features. Some offer very little protection against the elements while others can withstand storms and even harsh temperatures. When you need to choose a trail camera, it is always in your best interest to purchase the one you need rather than worrying about price.

For example, some trail cams can withstand extreme temperatures of -40 degrees Fahrenheit. Now, if you are studying in the desert, this isn’t going to help you much. But, if you are studying animals that thrive in the winter, purchasing a trail cam with the added protection against the cold becomes vital.

Weather is another factor when working outdoors. While very few camera traps will survive being submerged in water for long periods of time, you can get a camera trap that is weather proof. This means it will stand up to normal weather conditions without degrading the condition of the images it takes.

Camera Dimensions And Weight

You’ll want to consider the size and weight of your chosen trail cam according to how long you’ll need to carry it, how many you need, and what you are attaching it to. For instance, if you need to mount the camera onto a little sapling, chances are that a large trail cam will just cause it to bend or snap off. On the other hand, if you only have a short distance to carry it and something fairly wide and sturdy to mount it on, a larger one is just fine.

Camera traps are an important part of wildlife research. So long as you match the camera trap to the job, you’ll find that you will get the quality you need and equipment that will last for a long length of time. In the end, choosing the right equipment makes this kind of research easier and far more affordable.

It might not be the first item on your equipment list if you’re researching animals or animal behavior, but a camera trap can be a powerful addition to your arsenal. In many instances, you’ll find that it can actually take the place of a few different items and that it is really easy to set up. Of course, the biggest advantage is that your presence doesn’t hinder or interfere with the behavior of the animals, but there are a number of different benefits you likely didn’t know.

Date And Time Stamp

When you have hundreds of images and bits of video from seven days worth of research, it can get pretty confusing and hard to tell exactly when the pictures were taken. Choosing a camera trap that automatically records this information eliminates this whole problem since it automatically adds the date and time to the image or video.

You can easily reconstruct the scene to determine when animals entered the area and what they did upon arrival. You can also combine these images with your other research data to create complete slideshows or PowerPoint presentations.

Weather And Your Camera Trap

Animals, regardless of their species or genus, are a lot like humans when it comes to changes in the weather. In fact, they are far more sensitive to these changes than we are in many respects. This is where game cameras give you a huge advantage. Many of the models available record the temperature when they take a picture.

This will give you a pretty good indication of what the animals do at that temperature, how they behave when changes come, and if there are any changes in behavior during different parts of the day.

Infrared Technology

Animals behave differently at night than they do during the day. With this technology, you can use your camera trap at night to take highly detailed images. You can see exactly what the animals are up to without having to play with lighting or bugs.

Infrared flash adds another huge benefit to researchers that many other cameras don’t, at least not at a comparable price point. This flash lights up the area enough to take a good picture without spooking or startling the animal. This means you get a better representation of their behaviors.

Moon Phases

Changes in the moon and the positive and negative ions it gives off may also play an important role in an animal’s social life. If they’re acting abnormal, chances are this is the reason why. Good thing many of the game cameras now include the current moon phase with each image. You can add it to other information you have to predict behaviors and explain occurrences.

Video Segments

Manufacturers have added additional capabilities to their game cameras — video. While they don’t take large amounts of video, a good SD card and battery can get you up to 1,000 images and short videos in many instances.

Of course, how much a camera trap can help always depends on what kind of animal you’re studying and what you are looking for. However, the wide variety of information they can provide you with greatly increases the amount of accurate information you can collect and combine for comprehensive research.

Whether you are a hunter, a landowner, a biologist, or an environmentalist, monitoring members of an endangered species is an important step in maintaining the entire population. This is no easy task, however. Because they are so rare, they are often very skittish and difficult to catch. But, the information you can collect with something as simple as a game camera is priceless. You’d be amazed to see what game cameras can catch.

Identification, Assessment, And Counting With Game Cameras

Camera traps make it a snap to identify the various species who may be wandering through a specific area. If you select a game camera that works both at night and during the day, it’s even easier. So what can you learn from a series of images?

You’ll get an idea of how many individuals are in a particular area, but in many cases, you can determine the male to female ratio as well. You might be able to see if they are preparing to have little ones or if they already have babies. If you are really fortunate, the game camera might catch some anomalies such as an albino in addition to getting some great pictures.

Most importantly, you get a good look at the health of a species. Do they appear well fed or malnourished? Are they smaller than average? Do they have strange growths, poor fur, or just seem to act sickly in general? Are you seeing mutations? Game cameras give you a good portion of this information to determine the state the species is in and they will also give you an idea as to whether you can start a breeding program or similar ideas.

Protecting Endangered Species

This type of visual equipment has proven to be a powerful weapon in the defense of endangered animals. When dealing with some animals such as birds and small mammals, the landowner may not be aware that these species are on their property. If they’re noticed in time, it could prevent the owner from hunting, putting out poison, or destroying their habitat.

In some instances, a game camera may not be able to stop the death of an animal, but it might be able to stop the carnage. The images this technology has captured contain proof of poaching, glimpses of what happened, and even pictures of the poachers themselves. Because the images are dated and timed, it makes for some pretty convincing evidence.

Learning About Rare Species

Because endangered species are rarely seen and are often extremely fearful of humans, it is extremely difficult to observe them. Because game cameras don’t require manual operation, they are the perfect solution. You can set them up where you’ve found traces of the animal along a narrowing or path they pass through, even along the bank of a creek or at the edge of a meadow. This equipment can essentially cover an entire clearing.

You’ll be amazed at the pictures you’ll be able to capture and all of the information these images can hold. Who knows, you may just be able to find the key to saving a species.
