Excellent recommendations! I need to read The Backyard Bird Chronicles—it's one I know is up my alley, and it's on the reading list, but maybe it should be higher up. Light Migrations is definitely on the list now too.
Also love your description of robins as junk birds. They're common in parks and woods here too, but I don't see them as often near my apartment, so I welcome the junk when I can get it :)
No, listen, I am pleased for you! I mean I am kicking them out of the way over here but my point is it’s cool and wonderful to hear about the birds of other people’s lives! It’s life!
If you ever visit Ithaca, please come visit the Lab of Ornithology! Happy to do a tour! :)
WHAT?!?!?!?! What! I hope you’re serious because I will actually do this.
Yes! Absolutely serious!! :)

Haha I didn’t make up the term. And I only say it as a joke! I love my sparrows and house finches and whatnot!!
Well, Susan I saw my first ever robin 3 years ago, and I'm still awe-struck, so there!
