I just had to pass this terrific site on to Virginia birders. Though if
favors the western birds it is a fascinating collection of well produced 2
minute mini programs. They have been adding them at 5 a week since February
and it is an ongoing thing. You just might want to put an mp3 player in the
bathroom to replace the magazines. As of today there are 143 files
available . They provide a download links for listening, downloading and
text so they invite you to do so for your own use of course.

Hello, BirdChatters,
BirdNote is a radio series about the intriguing ways of birds. These
two-minute vignettes incorporate the rich sounds of birds with stories
that
illustrate their lives. Some of the shows are Pacific Northwest-oriented,
but many are of general interest. Each is accompanied by a photograph on
BirdNote.org. All episodes are in the archives, both in written transcript
and mp3 format, along with photographs, at http://www.BirdNote.org.
This coming week on BirdNote, we present a discussion of collective nouns,
*A Murder, a Party, a Stare, or a Siege,* diving and dabbling ducks,
stories about HawkWatch, and on Friday, something completely different,
"Twitiavis Superciliosis."
You can view the schedule and see photographs here:

Please check out the photos now, and listen this coming week. It's easy to
listen on-line.
In the Seattle area, tune in to KPLU-FM, 88.5, at 8:58 a.m., each weekday
morning. Or listen any time on the web, at http://www.BirdNote.org.
Please tune in to BirdNote, and let others know about it, too.
Here's wishing you good birding!
