Hello, Tweets!

Coming up on BirdNote, the week of Jan. 2, we start the year with--
* piracy among raptors
* the sounds of dawn around the world, by Gordon Hempton
* comparing chickadee calls
* birdbaths in winter
* Cuvier's Toucan, Toucan Sam - the Froot Loops bird

BirdNote is a radio series, two minutes per episode, which you can hear
live on KPLU or KOHO, or listen to --or read -- on the web site,
http://www.BirdNote.org. (Also available as a podcast.) These tales
incorporate songs and calls provided by Cornell University and by other
sound recordists. Each is complemented by a photograph on our web site. All
episodes are in the archives, both in written transcript and mp3 format.
(Depending on your connection, you may listen on-line or download the mp3.)
