Hello everyone,

this week's issue of Birds in the News is now available for you to enjoy. This issue includes a story about the T. rex-chicken connection, and a features stunning image -- perhaps one of my favorite images of a bird -- by one of my favorite photographers, John del Rio;

This week's issue of Ian Paulsen's Birdbooker Report is also available. I am pleased to say that the BbR is becoming quite popular and several of my readers have written to thank me for sharing this book list with them since it assists them to wisely spend their "economic stimulus package" that will soon be arriving in their bank accounts;

I also would like to point out that the Image of the Day is again returning to share more of John del Rio's glorious pictures. This time, I am running a series of his photos depicting a variety of passerines. The Image of the Day is scheduled to pop up daily at 3pm ET, so be sure to look in on that! If any of you have a nature image (or images) that you would like to share with a large and appreciative audience, please contact me.
