Marshland restoration in Iraq, and Wood Thrush back



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.
