The Sibley Guide to Birds

[Tough_Boots]

for all you bird folks out there--

the new edition of The Sibley Guide to Birds is out and we're doing an event with David Allen Sibley on 4/7/14. Its free and open to the public though there's a preferred seating deal if you purchase the book through Changing Hands. Its a fantastic guide and beautifully illustrated. This is a rare chance to meet someone like David and great opportunity to meet other birders. Here's the event info:

I think I need to pick that up since I wrote in my triplog that I found a wounded owl over the weekend, turns out it was actually a falcon...ooops.. thanks for the correct label guys and gals..

who knew, guess I have to study up on my birds, just a tad embarrassing..

Owl. Falcon. Hawk. Eagle. Doesn't matter if you know what it is or not. All of them are delicious.

You're going to be bummed when you find out the book has no recipes...

I've heard that mesquite bark is more palatable.

I would consider going, but I'll be gone...For all of you non-Birder's, Sibley's is pretty much the Birding Bible these days....Pretty cool that you got David to come in....

I saw two Bald Eagles last week in the Columbia River gorge, both soaring into the wind at fairly close range, apparently fishing.
