When staying with Daisy’s family in Yorba Linda, California, I often wake up early in the morning and take the short walk up to the southern end of Carbon Canyon Regional Park to do some birding. But the experience I had this morning put my previous sightings in the shade.

The chapter on “Capturing Bird Behavior” (my favorite) gives detailed examples of behavior cues and sound cues to look and listen for in anticipation of interesting preening, courtship, and family behavior.

You can end up basking in a rare bird bliss that may linger for weeks, or you basically experience a living hell. There are few things worse than being extremely seasick, particularly if you pay close to $200 for the experience. If you misidentify something, you bring great shame and dishonor to both you and your family.

I'm not one of those people who thinks family is composed of only humans or humans who are biologically related. The idea of family is currently being used by the dairy industry in a series of commercials with the tag line: "99% of dairy farms are family owned."

I started the year in Florida, traveled to India with the ABA in February, combined family and birding in an August trip to California, and in-between saw very good birds in New York and New Jersey.

That was my first trip to California Wildlife Center. There’s an imperative to get this message across to cat people who, like me, can be educated to value wild lives as much as we value the lives of our four-legged family members. It’s tribal and familial. I surprised her and she dropped the bird before vaporizing again.
