Hello, Tweeters,

This week on BirdNote, Steller's Jay, the mimic, is up, along with a Native
American myth-- How Raven Made the Tide, plus the Pileated Woodpecker, a
story on raptors and wind farms, and the long story in the song of the
Winter Wren.

BirdNote is a radio series, two minutes per episode, about the intriguing
ways of birds, incorporating songs and calls provided by Cornell University
and by other sound recordists. Each is accompanied by a photograph on our
web site. All episodes are in the archives, both in written transcript and
mp3 format, along with their photographs.

You can view the schedule and see photographs here:
