There are so many good blogs on the web that it's difficult to pick and choose the best ones but it helps if they are informative, well-written, and updated regularly. Some of the very best ones are about unusual jobs or hobbies. And it always helps if a blog is also entertaining and fun to read.
Because it includes all of the above criteria, the first blog I'm recommending on Hunkydory Links is:
Birdchick Blog - The birdwatching adventures of Sharon.
Sharon's delightful blog is very well-written, updated regularly and always informative. I learn something new all the time when I read about her adventures while birdwatching. And her blog is also entertaining, especially when she writes about her Disapproving Rabbits!
Moosey's Country Garden: An eccentric rambling New Zealand Country Garden.
This stunning site is one of my favourite gardening sites and in my opinion it's one of the best personal sites on the web. It's a huge website - over 2500 pages! - so I suggest you use the handy site map if you plan to explore the whole site.
Be sure to enjoy a leisurely stroll via the virtual garden tour.
I always feel inspired to do more with my own garden after looking at this site.
Sometimes, I like to share fun sites, like this one:
notstarring.com is a movie trivia database focusing exclusively on movie stars and the roles they turned down, auditioned for, got fired from, or simply didn't get.
The ultimate source for airplane seating, in-flight amenities and airline information.
Before you fly anywhere you would be well advised to peruse this website! It's one of the best travel websites on the web. The site offers seat maps as well as useful information and tips about each airline.
Carbon Footprint is an important website because it's about climate change and global warming and the site suggests ways to reduce your own carbon footprint and thereby reduce your contribution to global warming.
Carbon Footprint's mission is to educate and inform how we can all make the right lifestyle choices, save on waste and make sure that future generations will inherit a world we can be proud of.
The site also provides a handy carbon footprint calculator.
This is a breathtaking site - definitely one of the best on the web!

ARKive is the Noah's Ark for the Internet era - a unique global initiative, gathering together into one centralised digital library, films, photographs and audio recordings of the world’s species.
