    The Bird Banter Podcast #199 with Eric Hope

    Eric Hope is my guest for this episode of the podcast. I met Eric while chasing a couple of rare shorebirds at the Mouth of the Cedar River hotspot in southern King County, WA and thought at the time he might be an interesting guest. In the next few days he continued to find great shorebirds there, and I was sure I wanted to talk with Eric. I hope you enjoy.  As always suggestions for future guests are helpful.

    The Bird Banter Podcast #195 with Dr. David Mann and HaikuBOX

    On this episode Dr. David Mann talks about HaikuBOX, a small device that can record and identify bird calls and songs nearby, and send these recordings and IDs to a smart phone app for you to check anytime. It is pretty cool, and yet one more way for birders or researchers to monitor birds in an area.  I find especially interesting, besides the device itself, the background story of how it was conceived, produced and marketed.  It uses the neural net BirdNet from who else, Cornell, which uses similar computer learning technology to that used in Merlin.   It's pretty cool  To see more detailed info check out the associated blog post on BirdBanter.com, and please leave comments there or in a review on your favorite podcast app.   Thanks for  listening, and until next time, good birding and good day!

    The Bird Banter Podcast #194 with Peter Cavanagh

    How do birds fly anyway?  Well, in an incredible number of ways, adapted to their needs and circumstances. Birds have evolved from dinosaurs, some have evolved to not fly, others to fly in so many different habitats, circumstances and ways that to understand all of this is beyond human comprehension, but my guest on this episode, Dr. Peter Cavanagh, has set out to help readers understand a lot of what is understood, in a way that a non-PhD scientist can comprehend.  Listen, read and learn. Find Dr. Cavanagh online at on his website. Here is a link to buy his book on Buteo Books.   Check out some pretty spectacular photography on his Instagram page.  Read more on the Bird Banter blog.  Leave a review or rating on your favorite podcast feed to help me out. Until next time, good birding and good day!
