A young Southern Grey Shrike (Lanius meridionalis) in my garden on Lanzarote in the Canary Islands, summer of 2019. I've never seen an adult come this close to a human (about 2 meters). It's stil...
A visit from a baby Cisticola juncidis during this quarantine. I have found it in my backyard. My dog, Buddy (a lab), was looking at it with curiosity. Fortunately, Buddy is super friendly...

Marketing departments. No, seriously. There's no standard for what constitutes "tactical" - they all tend to be broadly the same kind of thing (heavy duty, designed for outdoors wear, cargo pockets...
