BBN S7:E20 - Intro to Binoculars, Birds & Wasps, Roseate Spoonbill, Downy Woodpecker
Channel: BBN - Brome Bird News
Date: 2023-09-26

In the 7 years I’ve been doing Brome Bird News, I’ve never actually talked about any of the gear I use for birdwatching, either out hiking or at home. If you are considering buying your first pair or have always wondered what the numbers mean - tune in to Backyard Feeding. John Petrus has a great question for Dr. Bird about how backyard birds might keep the wasp population down, and David talks about which birds eat the most wasps and which ones you may or may not see at your feeders. Dr. Bird is back again on Brome Bird Book talking about the Roseate Spoonbill and how they are being seen regularly in places far away from their normal stomping grounds. D is for Downy Woodpecker - the smallest but most abundant woodpecker in North America. They are regulars at our feeders and have been for years. Finally - Lapwings and Plovers. I always wondered how to pronounce Plover properly…watch Winner’s Circle to find out!
