After sixteen days touring the interior west and west coast of the United States with my family I am back in New York City. And, let me tell you, it was an amazing trip with gorgeous scenery, lots of cool mammals, and, of course, a whole big bunch of birds! Clark’s Nutcrackers are one of my favorite birds.
