We have had quite a run of birds overhead as they stream down along the Pacific flyway. Birds rule.

Further, researchers noted that bird diversity and density amped up when grasslands were surrounded by other grasslands. The upshot?

Getting intimate with a species over the course of the breeding cycle is one of the more rewarding aspects of birding, and field research too. The eyes are still not developed enough to open, and the feet are just strong enough to help right a toppled chick. You don’t really know a bird until you’ve studied it on its breeding grounds.
