It's the last Thursday in October and that means This Month in Birding, wherein we convene a august panel of birders to discuss the news that we missed this month, or more likely saved till the end of the month because they're more fun to talk about with other people. The panel this week is, for the first time, all returnees, including #cemeterybirder Danielle Belleny, Birdmodo creator Ryan Mandelbaum, and Popular Science writer Purbita Saha. Topics discussed include: New Duck Stamp Rules put in place Cassia Crossbills at risk from wildfires Massive finch movement this winter Cemetery Birding is the new hot thing Gynandromorph grosbeak found Eastern Black Rails put on Endangered Species List Thanks to Field Guides for sponsoring this episode.
