I agree with Ed that BirdNote is a wonderful program, and I am so pleased that it is still on the air. I should add that although I was a writer and scientific advisor for many years, I'm not connected with it currently. Bob Sundstrom, who many of you knew, was the principal writer, and it has always been a great group of people with whom to work. I hope everyone in tweeterland has listened to it.

When I talked with BirdNote Executive Director Nick Bayard on the latest Bird Banter Podcast episode I learned lot's more, including that our own Dennis Paulson (science advisor and writer) and Tom Bancroft (science advisor) play key roles. I also didn't know that BirdNote is not an NPR supported project, but is its own not-for-profit corporation supported mostly by individual donors. A pretty cool project to have such local roots and support. You can find the podcast on the Bird Banter website or on most podcast feeds. Thanks.
