We've got a fun one for you this week as we get ready for a very special guest: Peter Kaestner—the first person to see 10,000 bird species in the wild. We speak to him next week. To prep for that epic conversation, we're taking a closer look at the bird that earned him that milestone: the Orange-tufted Spiderhunter. Spoiler alert—Amanda was not impressed by it at first, and John and Shannon do their best to change her mind. Along the way, we get into species counts, what they mean, and how birders keep track. We also answer a mailbag question on Rusty Blackbirds and Common Grackles. As always, you've got married ornithologists and Field Museum curators John Bates and Shannon Hackett, plus RJ Pole and Amanda Marquart.Here are links to our social and YouTube pages, give us a follow: YouTube Instagram TikTok BlueSky

Story Transcript:Da: Freja stod ved kanten af klipperne og lod blikket glide ud over det vidtstrakte hav.En: Freja stood at the edge of the cliffs and let her gaze wander over the vast sea.Da: Vinden spillede i hendes hår, og solens varme kærtegn fyldte hendes sind med en kortvarig fred.En: The wind played in her hair, and the sun's warm caress filled her mind with a fleeting sense of peace.Da: Denne del af kysten ved Thy National Park var hendes foretrukne sted om sommeren.En: This part of the coast at Thy National Park was her favorite place in the summer.Da: Her kunne hun ofte se sjældne fugle, der kom for at bygge rede på de bølgende klipper.En: Here she could often see rare birds that came to nest on the rolling cliffs.Da: Her ønskede hun at finde fred.En: Here she wished to find tranquility.Da: Men bag hende, på stranden, lød Søren's latter og Elins glade råb.En: But behind her, on the beach, came Søren's laughter and Elin's joyful shouts.Da: Søren, Frejas yngre bror, var altid midtpunkt for opmærksomheden.En: Søren, Freja's younger brother, was always the center of attention.Da: Han elskede sjov og eventyr og ønskede at inddrage alle – især sin ældre, mere tilbagetrukne søster.En: He loved fun and adventure and wanted to include everyone—especially his older, more reserved sister.Da: "Freja, kom, vi mangler dig til vikingegolf!"En: "Freja, come, we need you for viking golf!"Da: råbte Søren ivrigt.En: shouted Søren eagerly.Da: Freja sukkede lidt, men vidste, at hun måtte hjælpe med at sætte picnicen op, før hun kunne stikke af til sit eget hjørne af paradis.En: Freja sighed a little but knew she had to help set up the picnic before she could sneak away to her own corner of paradise.Da: Tiden gik, og tæpper blev lagt ud, kurve blev åbnet, og snart duftede luften af nybagt brød og friskfangede fisk.En: Time passed, blankets were laid out, baskets opened, and soon the air smelled of freshly baked bread and freshly caught fish.Da: Da de endelig var sat, med en undskyldning om at skulle tjekke noget, sneg Freja sig væk mod de mere isolerede klippeformationer.En: When they were finally settled, with an excuse to check something, Freja snuck away toward the more isolated rock formations.Da: Her, omgivet af bølgernes brusen, fandt hun sin plads.En: Here, surrounded by the roar of the waves, she found her spot.Da: Hun satte sig stille og tog sin kikkert frem.En: She sat quietly and took out her binoculars.Da: Hendes hjerte sprang ved synet af en sjælden havørn, majestætisk og stolt, der kredsede højt over hende.En: Her heart leaped at the sight of a rare sea eagle, majestic and proud, circling high above her.Da: I sin iver fordybede hun sig i dette magiske øjeblik, men i et øjebliks glæde kaldte hun på sin bror for at få del i synet.En: In her excitement, she got caught up in this magical moment, but in a moment of joy, she called for her brother to share in the sight.Da: "Søren!En: "Søren!Da: Se, se der!"En: Look, look there!"Da: råbte hun og glemte for en kort stund sin trang til isolation.En: she shouted, forgetting for a brief moment her urge for isolation.Da: Søren's nysgerrighed udløste en kædereaktion.En: Søren's curiosity triggered a chain reaction.Da: Hele familien rejste sig, greb deres kikkerter og strømmede hen mod Frejas sted.En: The whole family got up, grabbed their binoculars, and streamed toward Freja's spot.Da: Freja så til, bange for at de ville skræmme fuglen væk.En: Freja watched, afraid they would scare the bird away.Da: Men til hendes overraskelse satte de sig lydløst ved siden af hende.En: But to her surprise, they sat down quietly beside her.Da: Sammen, næsten åndeløse, delte de synet af havørnen.En: Together, almost breathless, they shared the sight of the sea eagle.Da: Øjeblikket blev et, hvor stilhed talte højere end ord.En: The moment became one where silence spoke louder than words.Da: Freja følte en ny forståelse vokse i sig.En: Freja felt a new understanding grow within her.Da: Måske kunne hendes familie være en del af denne skønhed, uden at den blev ødelagt.En: Perhaps her family could be part of this beauty without ruining it.Da: Da havørnen til sidst svævede væk, blev hun siddende og følte en uventet varme risle gennem sig.En: When the sea eagle finally soared away, she remained seated, feeling an unexpected warmth trickle through her.Da: I løbet af eftermiddagen gik de roligt tilbage til picnicen.En: Throughout the afternoon, they walked calmly back to the picnic.Da: Fuglene fløj rundt dem, og Freja smilede til Søren, som om hun havde fundet en dybere forbindelse til både naturen og sin familie.En: Birds flew around them, and Freja smiled at Søren, as if she had found a deeper connection to both nature and her family.Da: Midt i latteren og den stille forening havde hun fundet balancen mellem sine ønsker og familiens kærlighed.En: Amidst the laughter and quiet unity, she had found the balance between her desires and her family's love.

This week, we're revisiting some favorites from Major Jackson's time as host. Today's episode was originally released on December 21, 2023. In this episode, Major writes… “If only we viewed observations of the natural world and meditations on birds, mammals, and plant life as equally, critically urgent, we might awaken to the necessity of caretaking of our planet and each other. Birdwatching does not have to be a form of looking away, it can be an antidote for our spirit.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.

It was as if I'd switched my studio input from one dimension to Dolby stereo." It changed her perception of the world. In her new book of essays Turning to Birds: The Power and Beauty of Noticing, she writes about her encounters with the natural world, what she has gained by paying attention to her surroundings, and how her connection with nature helps her find peace and calm.
