I truly didn’t realize the presence I was in when I was on the show with Freddie’s Birdies. An absolute talent of a third chair

This is truly shocking and devastating news. The Cinema Lords Pod was one of the nicest minifans I’ve had the pleasure of spending time with. Just tragic all the way around. RIP to a genuinely great person.

I was blindsided with nostalgia by Justin Trudell’s Nature’s Classroom story. We did the same thing when I went in 1999 (I believe) and I had never thought of it since until today. Clearly wasn’t as jarring for me. Shocked to hear it was still going on in ā€˜07 though.

This guy on Jeopardy just lost money on a daily double by guessing Kalashnikov instead of AK-47. This is a grave injustice. Any guesses on what the K stands for?

I know it was mentioned a few episodes back, but is that email from Curtis’ wife to Lucy that Justin has on is wall findable? I would kill to read it.

Tomorrow I will do everything in my power to break my single-day Sullivan County species record of 116. I will tweet along the way. Stay tuned.

9:00AM Update: A clean sweep of all five local Swallow species in one spot has helped me reach my current total of 83 species.

10:30AM Update: Craziest bird of the day, a Dickcissel, found by a fellow birder only a short distance from where I was. Flew right over and got is as #92 for the day. Rare in NH anytime but especially in the spring.

12:00pm Update: Moving on from the river valley and moving on to the mountains. Hopefully a change in habitat brings more birds. At 95 species now.

Despite my best efforts, I came 6 species short of tying my single day record of 116 species. I technically saw 111 species if you include one bird I popped over to VT to see. Poor weather and bad luck got me in the end. Here’s the days list: ebird.org/tripreport/372…

A minute fraction of the 15,000+ Red Phalaropes I was lucky enough to witness off the coast of NH today in an unprecedented migratory fallout. A plethora of other great birds and tons of whales and other cetaceans. An incredible day all the way around.

This broad got the answer right on Jeopardy by saying bass boat like ā€œbass guitarā€ instead of bass like the fish. This is fucking ridiculous
