Hello tweeties,

this week's issue of Birds in the News is now available for you to enjoy. It features some really interesting birds in science stories -- one of which I hope to write about if I can get the original research paper. This issue also features the lovely image of a marsh wren by the professional Seattle photojournalist, Jeff Larsen.

I am also posting another mystery bird image for you to identify this afternoon (at 3pm ET, noon PT), so be sure to pop in to see that as well.

cheers,
