In fact, this is the source for the statistic — that approximately 71 million Americans are “bird watchers” — that has been a veritable iceberg to the Titanic of any birding-industry company that took the number at face value. I’ve been against buying the Duck Stamp for a long time.

When my husband and I first adopted Baby Sky, several friends and relatives asked, "are you going to make her be a vegan? They were forcing us to be consumers of animal exploitation industries.
