I was remiss enough to miss this when it first appeared last April. Thanks to Michael Newton for pointing it out.
PS: Of course I know it is a bloody joke!!!!!

DALE DRINNON: Giant eels, forerunner of the Chupacabras, and update on Tartessos
The follow-up to the Chessie and Cressie series mentions the Big Sea Eels which I call Titanoconger, and clears up some popular misconceptions about the giant leptocephali:

And Meanwhile at the Frontiers-of-Anthropology, I felt it necessary to make some clarifications about Tartessos because of the recent "Atlantis" hype:

Because of the computer problems I was having tonight, one of the blogs I was working on was inadvertantly published when the site cut off wrongly. I decided to forge on ahead and consider it published anyway. It concerns an early Argentine forerunner of the Chupacabras that looked like a small dinosaur or dragon and was being blamed for cattle mutilations in the 1920s

RSPB: Second chance to see one of UK’s rarest birds
RSPB runs special event to showcase its work with cirl buntings at Labrador Bay in South Devon
On Sunday 17 July, the RSPB will be running short guided walks on their Labrador Bay reserve near Shaldon. This follows the success of similar walks in May.
The RSPB’s Steven Henry said: “We had lots of interest back in May with each walk well attended by people eager to see cirl buntings. While they don’t necessarily have the glamour of rare tigers or pandas they are precious in their own way and it’s great to be able to share this with people.”
Throughout the day, staff and volunteers will be on hand to talk about the success of their cirl bunting project and hopefully show people these elusive yet charismatic little birds. The cirl bunting was once known as the village bunting due to its wide range across the south of Britain but numbers went into terminal decline in Britain in the 1930s. At one point, numbers were as low as 118 pairs.
Thanks to the help of local farmers, the RSPB has brought the number up over 800 pairs and the future is now looking brighter for this handsome, yellow bird. Labrador bay, one of the most recent RSPB reserves, is playing a major part in the cirl bunting’s recovery. Steven added: “Of course it’s not just cirl buntings we’ll be seeing. There’s always lots of butterflies around the hedgerows when the sun shines, and there are always birds such as peregrines, kestrels and skylarks around the site.
“The reserve car park is on the road between Shaldon and Babbacombe. So bring the family, bring your binoculars and boots and let us entertain you!”
