    The Bird Banter Podcast #185 with Keith Corliss

    As I mention in the introduction, some of my best times recording episodes for the podcast is when I just talk birding with another birder, like myself who just loves to talk birding with a fellow birder. No other agenda, just having fun.  Keith Corliss is my guest on this episode, a North Carolina birder who perfectly exemplifies a fellow birder enjoying taking an hour to chat about birding and meeting a new friend.  Enjoy See Keith's eBird profile here Keith's email is on his ebird profile. I mention several episodes I really enjoyed with other birders who have great local and regional birding experiences to share. You'll find links to those and more on my  I also mention the San Diego Birding Festival, I believe I misnamed it as the Sea and Sage Festival on the recording but here is the link.  You can find information about the Searcher 5-day pelagic with Todd McGrath and others here.   Westport Seabirds in Washington can be found here.  Thanks for listening.  Until next time, good birding and good day!

    The Bird Banter Podcast #181 with David Lindo

    I don't know many birders who may be better known by a reputational moniker than by their real name, but The Urban Birder, David Lindo, may be my first.  I had certainly heard of someone called The Urban Birder, but only looked up who this was after Diane Yorgensen-Quinn put out notice of a trip David is planning to take Diand, Faye and likely other members of our ABC Birding Club on to see the Short-eared Owls of Kikinda, Serbia this winter.  On the episode we talk about the planned trip, how he came to be known as the Urban Birder, about his various services and roles in his company, and about his approach to urban birding in general. I think you'll find it interesting.  To see more, check out the related Bird Banter blog post.  Thanks for listening, and until next time, good birding and good day!
