Let’s say you’re at a fast food restaurant and you have a few french fries left over and a gull is eagerly staring at you and the fries. Of course, this doesn’t bother the birds but it does bother people. Of course,bird feeders should be cleaned regularly to prevent disease from being a problem.

And in the free-flying aviary that is Florida you can easily be shocked by what you find, but White Ibis seem to show a surprising affinity to the local fast food joints. And of course, there’s the females, gray brown and dark-eyed. And in parts of the Rockies, Clark’s Nutcracker reigns supreme.

Of course we’ve all experienced the excruciating opposite of such an excursion, but when waves of new birds practically clamor for attention in quick succession, the feeling is exhilarating. And unlike a cheap meal at a fast food joint, this banquet of birds remained satisfying long after we left!

Of course, excellent opportunity to go birding with my friends Brad and Laura. Of course, I made that up. It is mid-March and I am back in Colorado for meetings. We would leave straight from the airport to the mountains so I had put on the birding clothes and looked like an army veteran. Good thing: I was given priority boarding.

Of course, I contacted Carlos Sanchez , alleged south Florida birder extraordinaire, to maximize the returns on what time I could spend. And could we just do a quick drive through at a fast food joint? Of course not! We had to eat some wonderfully prepared Lebanese food including some outstanding hummus.

Of course, Little Egrets like to eat fish. Like fast food, but free and likely more healthy. Maybe link to another music recommendation? Pat Fish was the creative force behind a band called Jazz Butcher – he died in October last year. You can listen to one of his last songs here, Running on fumes. Happy with the link?

If the world is your playing field the only rarities you might chase are rare on a global scale in that they are Critically Endangered, not dirt-common birds that wandered off course. Twitchers consume vast quantities of fuel and contribute to climate change. They help perpetuate a not-very-flattering image of birding.
