QUESTION: I’m seeing way fewer AI bullshit birds on the internet, is it just me? If it’s true, and I partly responsible and if so do I get some kind of cash reward? Thanks! slate.com/technology/2023/12…

I now own both volumes! If you love flycatchers you need these. If you don't love flycatchers what's wrong with you 😉 @CinTyLeeEarth @LALABirding

May 7 release! Available for preorder. The volume on empids is excellent!
It’s here! Volume 2 of Flycatchers - Myiarchus and Kingbirds. Arrives on May 7! This volume benefited from your feedback on Vol 1. Over the next few weeks Andy Birch @LALABirding and I will share little snippets of the book. This group of flycatchers may be even harder than empids but we try to make it accessible to all. @PrincetonNature

A bit of good news.
Officers put a halt to bird burgling. A @USFWS Federal Wildlife Officer (FWO) and Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) Officers found and confiscated illegal bird traps that were set on an island approximately 150 miles southwest of Miami. Suspect arrested!
