[1] Do you think people are really confused enough to need this? -- Moni3 ( talk) 02:59, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
Hello, in Seattle, from southwest Arizona (Yuma, AZ, on the Colorado River)... I thought I would say hello, since you are new to Wikipedia... I generally do NOT make an effort to TALK to anybody, per se,... except when I have to deal with the "idiota" of wikipedia...(Look at my Talk page, you'll, see some of the FUNNN)-- there are many, ALAS... I created the category: Category:Bird terminology, specifically for someone like UrSelf to come-along and transform a simple article like " Gleaning (birds)", into a Real Article.
my comments are this, and are Basically, just ramblings: Here in the City, of Yuma, I live in a neighborhood of Hummingbirds, and thus have planted one plant each (basically) of------Fairyduster- Calliandra, Calliandra californica, (I'm having to search for the Genus-species, etc)-- Justicia-(Chuparosa-Spanish for hummingbird), the Chuparosa, a bush here in the desert, is......especially liked (probably for sweeetness, or taste--(also a SPECIFIC color of red-perfect depth of flower,too?)) by the hummingbirds, It is: Justicia californica- (a ReDirect from Chuparosa),
At any rate I want to describe how the hummingbird, hunts also for (gleans) its spiders; It goes along the eave of a building, or it goes into a branch end,..... and picks out the spider. (as opposed to gathering the SILK, for a nest?). What is nice is that the local Verdin, a small bird-(a SW North America endemic), that builds a Sphere-(warmth & protection, a YEAR-round resident-(COOL in summer?-WARM in winter?), nest, with an entrance in the lower quadrant, for water-non-entry, gleans constantly in similar bushes, but especially in a hibiscus, (where the hummingbirds use IT, at a different time, especially for the flowers, but at other times for the spiders, or webs). The Verdin is in the hibiscus constantly (and will eat flowers off another type: the Bell-Flower, whatever that species is), but in the Hibiscus, the Verdin hunts, or gleans constantly, (AND, it is MOSTLY announcing its presence with its clicks; the same CLICKs are used by the hummingbirds ( Lucifer Hummingbirds are here), but the Loudness, and Continualness of the Verdin's can be greater.
So, YellowBells-(never STOPS producing a flower cluster, and eventually is PROFUSE, but usually just continuous), is that other flower (bush) that the Verdin will chew off the flower base for the Sugar. So, I thought I would tell our local story here. (The big RAINS, you were getting, went to LOS Angeles, then slightly came through SW Ariz. for 2 days... Enjoy the new round of rains, & wind coming through you today, and tomorrow...

Hi Brambleshire, Re: Category:Pest insects; I moved those articles you pointed out into agriculture pests and ornamental plant pests subcategories. Thanks for clarifying the diffusing category purpose.— Look2See1 t a l k → 16:15, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
There are several places to put the citation text for an article, as long as the citation number appears in the text just after the text to which it refers. There are several reasons to put the ref tags in the Reflist rather than in the text, including the fact that the text is much easier to read with just the short ref/ tag, and the fact that the refs are all in one place and easier to review. Although there is also nothing wrong with the refs being in the article body itself, the Manual of Style doesn't specify this as the only method (it only specifies where the number should appear). I generally put refs in the Reflist because it's easier, but I don't move them if someone else puts them in the body because this is simply a waste of time better used to actually improve the article. The Umgeni River Bird Park article still looks identical to readers now after you did all that work. It's just harder to edit (IMHO) because of long refs being in the middle of text.

Hi. When you recently edited Bird colony, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Corvus ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hello Brambleshire, I am the GA reviewer for Transitional fossil. The review has been stuck for some weeks now, with the only outstanding actions being to supply a few missing citations. I notice you've done some work on the article. Would you be up to sorting out the gaps, or do you know other editors who could do the work? with best wishes Chiswick Chap ( talk) 12:30, 5 May 2012 (UTC)
Hi! Would you care to share your opinion about the composite/single infobox image issue here? I would really appreciate it. Thanks! -- Life is like a box of chocolates ( talk) 01:10, 25 February 2013 (UTC)
