While in the car yesterday, heard part of the NPR program, Talk of the Nation.
The topic was the restoration of the marsh lands of southern Iraq, which have
been almost totally destroyed, and are having a large negative impact
on migrating birds.
I've included 2 links below if anyone
would like to read more about it.
At home, did finally hear Wood Thrush songs this AM.
