  Japanese encephalitis - WrongDiagnosis.com
Japanese encephalitis is listed as a "rare disease" by the Office of Rare Diseases (ORD) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
Conventionally speaking, Japanese Encephalitis (日本脳炎 nihon-nōen) is a disease caused by the mosquito-borne Japanese Encephalitis Virus, however, modern epidemiologist consider virus as a component cause and not the sufficient cause of the disease as incidence of the diseases is always very low.
Japanese Encephalitis is diagnosed by detection of antibodies in serum and CSF (cerebrospinal fluid) by IgM capture ELISA.

 Rescue Report: Winter 2003   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
The birds were respected and given the dignity they deserve- even for the few that passed away, there was a place of burial that was a shrine.
Birds were typically given only seed, typically sunflower seeds- rarely were additional fresh or formulated foods provided; hygiene was very poor and there was great overcrowding and small cages.
In addition, birds were often housed next to a variety of species of mammals, in conditions similar to the birds’.

 COMMUNAL WINTERING OF A SANDHILL CRANE WITH JAPANESE CRANES IN HOKKAIDO, JAPAN   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Japanese Cranes are considered as residents in Hokkaido but there may be a movement of some birds between Kushiro and Neroufo.
Some birds approached it with light threatening posture and were immediately attacked by one of the "family" adults, but it was diffi- cult to distinguish between these attacks and weak aggressions frequently ex- pressed only to maintain interindividual distance or to defend a good feeding spot.
The bird in Kyushu was not a bird of the year as was the one in Hokkaido.

 MBTA Alpha List
This is an adaptation of the List of Migratory Birds that appears in Title 50 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Section 10.13.
The major difference between this list and the "official" published list is that the scientific and common (English) names have been changed to conform to the most recent taxonomy (as reflected in the 1983 AOU Check-list and published supplements through 1995).
EXAMPLES: in the CFR list, the Yellow Bittern is listed as Chinese Bittern and the scientific name of the Crested Caracara (Caracara plancus) is given as Polyborus plancus.

 Notes to Bird Glossary - Japanese orthography   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Japanese possesses a complicated writing system, but possibly nowhere does it reach such complexity as it does in bird, animal and plant names.
To write the Japanese words in the first column, the Japanese turned to the equivalent birds in Chinese (Chinese meaning and pronunciation shown in columns 4 and 5).
The Japanese may have lacked a name for these birds or the Japanese name was superseded by the Chinese for some reason.

 HeraldNet: Dead birds drop lower on priority list   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
In part, it said that if birds such as crows and jays haven't been dead more than 48 hours and don't show signs of bleeding or injury, they can be brought to the public health agency's main office in downtown Everett during weekday business hours.
Even people willing to take the bird to the public health agency are asked to follow a list of instructions, he said, including double bagging the bird in freezer bags with paper towels between the bags.
Employees are dispatched to pick up dead birds for testing, but "we're only able to pick up a small percentage of the crows reported to us," said Hilary Karasz, a spokeswoman for the public health agency in Seattle and King County.

 Where do you want to go birding in Japan today?
Principal birding destinations were Hegura Island (Oct 3-5), Cape Irago and the nearby Shiokawa mudflats (Sept 28), and, around Tokyo, the Tama river and estuary and Yatsu mudflat (Oct.7).
Overall, I had a good time, saw a good cross-section of the Japanese countryside and Japanese birds, missed several species I should have seen, and was clearly too late in the year for the major shorebird migration.
These notes and list probably won't be much use to the hard-core birder planning a comprehensive search for Japanese endemics and migrants, but might be useful to those (like me) with a few days to spare after business in the concrete nightmare of Tokyo.

 Amazon.com: Extinct Birds (Comstock Books): Books: Errol Fuller   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Some of the birds are familiarthe heath hen, passenger pigeon, dodo and great auk; mosquitoes and rats from ships brought destruction to certain island birds, and starving Japanese soldiers ate the last Wake Island rail during World War II.
It may be that some of these birds are not extinct, only hiding (Fuller shows this has happened before), but most of the birds here are certainly as dead as dodoes.
Predicting how it will go for birds over the next century can't be done exactly, of course, but it doesn't look good for them; one respected research study concludes that one in eight bird species are at risk for extinction in the next century.

 Where do you want to go birding in Korea today?
Korean birds and Korean conservation - from local birders and overseas eco-tourists to the curious armchair birder, from members of the media to members of the scientific community.
South Korea lacks endemic bird species, and is rather poor in terms of avian dry land diversity compared with other East Asian countries, but its wetlands and waterways are extremely important for the future conservation of migratory waterbird species, around 13 of which are globally threatened, and for the future well-being of the human population.
The expectations were not high for several reasons: the time of the year generally is very quiet (in the middle of the breeding season), most bird species in Korea are found there in winter.

 Notes on Japanese Onomatopoeia
After watching a bit of anime or reading manga in Japanese, it will quickly become apparent that the Japanese have words for sounds that cannot be heard.
In addition to those onomatopoeia which imitate the sounds of nature, called gisei-go in Japanese, Japanese recognizes two additional types of onomatopoeia: one that basically suggests states of the external world (gitai-go), and another that basically names internal mental conditions and sensations (gijoo-go).
If you like this list, take a look at "Japanese sound effects and what they mean".
