WELCOME TO THE CFZ BLOG NETWORK: COME AND JOIN THE FUN

Half a century ago, Belgian Zoologist Bernard Heuvelmans first codified cryptozoology in his book On the Track of Unknown Animals.

The Centre for Fortean Zoology (CFZ) are still on the track, and have been since 1992. But as if chasing unknown animals wasn't enough, we are involved in education, conservation, and good old-fashioned natural history! We already have three journals, the largest cryptozoological publishing house in the world, CFZtv, and the largest cryptozoological conference in the English-speaking world, but in January 2009 someone suggested that we started a daily online magazine! The CFZ bloggo is a collaborative effort by a coalition of members, friends, and supporters of the CFZ, and covers all the subjects with which we deal, with a smattering of music, high strangeness and surreal humour to make up the mix.

It is edited by CFZ Director Jon Downes, and subbed by the lovely Lizzy Bitakara'mire (formerly Clancy), scourge of improper syntax. The daily newsblog is edited by Corinna Downes, head administratrix of the CFZ, and the indexing is done by Lee Canty and Kathy Imbriani. There is regular news from the CFZ Mystery Cat study group, and regular fortean bird news from 'The Watcher of the Skies'. Regular bloggers include Dr Karl Shuker, Dale Drinnon, Richard Muirhead and Richard Freeman.The CFZ bloggo is updated daily, and there's nothing quite like it anywhere else. Come and join us...

SAVE THE FLOW COUNTRY

Bizarrely, I was reading about the Flow Country in a book by Bill Drummond last night. Then this arrives.

Hello again!

When I last e-mailed you things were looking quite bleak for parts of the Flow Country - ill-placed conifers were damaging the precious habitat and threatening to overwhelm the native plants and wildlife of this special place.

However, thanks to our amazing supporters, we've raised over £500,000 for our Flow Country appeal.

This generosity means we can now start removing the damaging trees, but we've still got a long way to go. Your support is still needed to help us restore the land to natural bog and peatland.

Just for you

I love the beautiful wilderness of the Flow Country and its unique wildlife and plants - it's a place that once seen will stay with your forever. But don't just take my word for it. Exclusively for you, our film 'The undiscovered country' is now available to watch online and captures perfectly the beauty and magic of this landscape.

So find a comfy chair, press play, and be amazed by one of Europe's last unspoilt wild places.

Best wishes

Norrie Russell

PS Feel free to share the beauty of this amazing place with others.
