Birdwatch Radio Podcast
Birdwatching may be one of the most common activities in America. Active pursuit of birds, keeping a record of what you see, feeding the birds, and bird photography all continue to grow in popularity as well. There is a vibrant birding industry, too. This includes retail stores selling bird seed and bird supplies, more new specialized optics for those who want to view, photograph, and document their sightings, a growing number of field guides and magazines, and more than a few travel and guide services for birders who want to make their vacations more than just a day at the beach or a snooze...
