hi everyone,

thanks to tweets from my twitter pals, i learned that today's google doodle
honours william john swainson, who many of you will know as the namesake
for swainson's hawk, swainson's thrush, and swainson's warbler:

so who was this swainson guy? you might be interested to read a little
about him -- i know i certainly was!

cheers,
