Puede que nunca hayas visto un cardenal norteño en la naturaleza, pero probablemente lo has visto en tarjetas navideñas o en la portada de algún libro de aves. Durante la temporada de reproducción en primavera, el biólogo Eric Lind y su equipo capturan y anillan aves en Constitution Marsh, en el lado este del río Hudson. Durante ocho años seguidos, Eric capturó a la misma hembra de cardenal. ¡Ocho años! Eso es el doble de la edad promedio de un cardenal adulto. Esta hembra agresiva no solo picoteaba los dedos del anillador como otras aves capturadas, sino que sujetaba fuertemente la carne blanda entre su pulgar y el índice con su poderoso pico. Y se aferraba con fuerza. No solo es una cara bonita, ¡sino una luchadora aguerrida!Listen to this episode in English here. Más información y transcripción en BirdNote.org.¿Quieres más BirdNote?

Summary: Can Screamers get any stranger? You bet! Join Kiersten as she discusses some skeletal anomalies that Screamers possess. For my hearing impaired followers, a complete transcript of this podcast follows the show notes on Podbean Show Notes: “Functional significance of the uncinate processes in birds”, by Pete G. Tickle, A. Roland Ennos, Laua E. Lennox, Steven F. Perry, and Jonathan R. Codd.

Britannica: Screamers, https://www.britannica.com Music written and performed by Katherine Camp Transcript (Piano music plays) Kiersten - This is Ten Things I Like About…a ten minute, ten episode podcast about unknown or misunderstood wildlife. (Piano music stops) Welcome to Ten Things I Like About… I'm Kiersten, your host, and this is a podcast about misunderstood or unknown creatures in nature. Some we'll find right out side our doors and some are continents away but all are fascinating. This podcast will focus ten, ten minute episodes on different animals and their amazing characteristics. Please join me on this extraordinary journey, you won't regret it. Episode six of Screamers is going to take us on an interesting journey into Screamer anatomy because the sixth thing I like about screamers is their weird anatomical quirks. Last episode we talked about one of their special anatomical accessories, the spurs. In this episode we will look at two more of the Screamer's anatomical anomalies that also pertain to the skeleton. Many of you have probably heard somewhere that birds have hollow bones. This is a simplified statement about bird bone anatomy. We will need to understand this a bit before we talk about screamer bones, so, those of you that already know this, bear with me, for those of you who are hearing this for the first time, hold on to your hat, I'm about to blow you mind. Vertebrate skeletons are made up of hard, calcium rich bones. It's what give our bodies their shape and ability to move. Birds are vertebrates so they rely on their skeleton to give their body shape and act as the anchor for muscles to allow them movement, just like mammals. Avian bones are special because they have adapted to the bird's need to fly. If you have too much weight defying gravity can be difficult. Flighted birds adapted to this challenge by evolving less solid bones than mammals. Using the word hollow, makes you think of a tube, such as a straw or toilet paper tube that is completely open inside with no internal structure. You can look through one end and see clearly out the other end with no obstacles. Bird bones are not hollow in this manner. Their bones have an internal structure throughout the tube. If we were to look inside a bird's bone we would see more of a honeycomb design. It's essentially bones with air pockets. These are called pneumatic bones. The bones have lessened weight by getting rid of dense material but have increased strength by adding structure throughout the middle of the bone. This is how flighted birds can get off the ground and fly. They have bones that contain more air that provide structure for the body and muscles without being so solid that flying is a struggle. Now having said this, if we look at an average flighted bird, say a Bald Eagle or a Northern Cardinal, not all of their bones have this honeycomb structure. Typically, the larger bones will have this structure and smaller bones will not. The smaller bones will be more solid. This is where the Screamer skeletal oddity applies. All the bones in a screamer have this open honeycomb structure. All of them, including the smallest toe bone. Screamers have the most pneumatic skeleton of any living bird. And we have no idea why. Screamers are good flyers. Once they get up into the air, they soar like vultures, riding the thermals. They can soar for hours at a time, but as we know they spend most of their time on the ground in or around water. They are a larger bird, so maybe this has to do with their interesting bone structure. On the other hand, geese and swans are the same size, are great flyers and spend most of their time on or near the water, but they do not have this skeletal anomaly. This is not the only abnormality about the Screamer skeleton. Another oddity sets Screamers apart from almost all other birds. This interesting tidbit involves the uncinate processes. As before, we need to do a short anatomy lesson to fully understand the anatomical oddity of the Screamer. The uncinate process is a bony projection that is attached to vertebral ribs in avian skeletons. These projections are important in avian respiration. Birds do not have a muscular diaphragm like mammals to help them inflate and deflate the lungs. Birds rely on the movement of their sternum to breathe. That's why it's so important to hold birds properly when restraining them for veterinary care or scientific measurements. If you put too much pressure on the sternum, you can suffocate them. Studies have shown that the uncinate processes are integral in avian respiration acting as attachment site for muscles used in the mechanics of breathing. The presence of an uncinate process on the ribs of a bird increased the respiration function by 2 to 4 compared to a bird without an uncinate process. These processes allow the bird to more easily rotate the dorsal ribs forward, pushing the sternum down and inflating the lungs. Seems pretty important to me! The length of the uncinate process varies by species and seems to be impacted by what physical activities the bird partakes in most often, for example walkers versus divers versus non-specialist birds. Further studies have shown that the uncinate process is actually important in both inhalation and exhalation in birds. I don't think I need to tell you this, but this little bone extension seems like a mighty useful tool and one that all birds should have, but the title of the episode isn't Screamers: Skeletal Normalities but Screamers: Skeletal Anomalies. So, here it is folks. Screamers do not have uncinate processes. That's right, they do not have these little bones that are so helpful for breathing. And once again, we don't know why. None of the three species of Screamers have uncinate processes. They can breath, clearly they are living creatures that process oxygen just like the rest of us, but unlike most species of birds they do not utilize uncinate processes to do it. Every episode I write about these incredible birds makes me like them more and more. I hope you think so too because my sixth favorite thing about Screamers is their skeletal anomalies. If you're enjoying this podcast please recommend me to friends and family and take a moment to give me a rating on whatever platform your listening. It will help me reach more listeners and give the animals I talk about an even better chance at change. Join me next week for another exciting episode about Screamers.

Lindsay observes northern cardinals on her bird feeder.
Northern Cardinals are known for their iconic red feathers, yet that scarlet hue is actually derived from yellow pigments in their food. Most cardinals' bodies transform those yellow pigments into their signature shade of red, but some lack this ability — resulting in a bright yellow bird. House Finches, Red-bellied Woodpeckers, and other notably red species can also develop an unexpectedly golden complexion. So keep an eye out for all the shades of variation in well-known birds.More info and transcript at BirdNote.org. Want more BirdNote? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter.

I had scheduled this for the U.S. July 4th holiday tomorrow, but I'm second-guessing that now and pressing send with unrestricted access. Perhaps this can offer some counter-programming to the sometimes overbearing or militant sounds of fireworks, or be a balm to those who are traveling and might feel unsettled right now.Why not make it a two-fer? I also just shared a spacious dawn chorus soundscape field recording I made recently at Malheur National Wildlife Refuge.For the next four installments of Soundwalk we are traveling to Texas in the springtime. After several soundwalks with sparse birdsong, I'm ready for migration sounds. How about you?Texas hill country in springtime is pretty great. The morning air is mild and sweet. The birdsong is exotic to my western North American ears. Flowers are in bloom. I get the draw. I wasn't missing cold, rainy Oregon that morning.Barton Creek Greenbelt is in the inner rings of southeast Austin, TX, but it feels like a world apart from the city. Sure there's the hum of the highway that's not far off, but it's pretty easy to tune out, and in some reaches of the canyon, altogether missing.I visited April 4th. There was no water in the creek bed due to ongoing drought conditions, but the shrubs and grasses were spring green amongst the canopy dominated by live Oak. The lack of water in the soundscape gave the bird and insect sounds more presence. For a lot of songbirds in North America there are western and eastern analogues. Eastern Wood-Pewee: Western Wood Pewee, Carolina Chickadee: Black-capped Chickadee, Carolina Wren: Bewick's Wren. What the west does not have is its own version of the Northern Cardinal. (We also don't get Grackles and lots of other widespread eastern birds.) The Northern Cardinal is just such a superstar of the bird world. It's a noteworthy absence. The closest thing we have to the Cardinal might be the Lazuli Bunting, a distant cousin in the cardinalae family. Like the Northern Cardinal, the male is painted vibrantly. Instead of crimson, it has a sky-blue hood that dazzles the eye. But it's not really a backyard bird, so it's observed less frequently. Furthermore, its repertoire of songs and calls is limited in comparison, and a bit busy-sounding. There's a lot going on in this soundscape, but the Northern Cardinal, I would say, is really the star of the show with its sweet cheer, cheer, cheer and birdie, birdie, birdie layering on from many coordinates.My instrumental score is dominated by a Wurlitzer electric piano, leaving room for the avian frequencies throughout. Gauzy strings and synth layers sweep in and out with watercolor broad-strokes. Occasional glockenspiel and zither offer some filigree. It's a good introduction for what's to come, and brings me joy to share it with you!

Northern Cardinals have vocal abilities that surpass even the most accomplished human singers. When cardinals sing, they sweep their voices from the high to low end of their ranges many times in just seconds. The secret is in the clever way cardinals use their two-sided vocal organ, called the syrinx. By dividing their vocal range between the two sides, cardinals can sing complex songs rapidly.More info and transcript at BirdNote.org. Want more BirdNote? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter.

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for Feb 20th Publish Date: Feb 19th Commercial: From the Drake Realty Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast. Today is Tuesday, February 20th, and Happy heavenly Birthday to Steeley Dan founder Walter Becker. ***02.20.24 – BIRTHDAY – WALTER BECKER*** I'm Dan Radcliffe and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Credit Union of Georgia. Life Sentence Issued for Austell Murder Convict Investigation Shifts: South Cobb Fatal Crash Now Not Considered Hit and Run Cobb Sheriff Earns Prestigious 'Triple Crown' Accreditation Recognition" All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! BREAK: CUofGA STORY 1: Man Sentenced to Life for Austell Murder Douglasville resident, Sony Lebrun, 37, has been handed a life sentence without parole for a murder case dating back to August 2021. The Cobb County jury found him guilty on multiple charges including malice murder, felony murder, aggravated assault, and firearm possession. Lebrun's conviction relates to the fatal shooting of Eric Stone, a consequence of road rage at the Premier Lane Apartments in Austell. Witnesses pinpointed Lebrun as the culprit and his presence at the crime scene was confirmed by GPS cell phone data. Cobb Superior Court Judge Sonja Brown presided over his sentencing, commending the diligent efforts of law enforcement and prosecutors in the case. Cobb County Assistant District Attorneys Jay Winkler and Donna Merrell represented the prosecution for District Attorney Flynn Broady Jr.'s office. Broady underscored the importance of this conviction in reinforcing community safety. STORY 2: Fatal Crash in South Cobb No Longer Investigated as a Hit and Run The investigation into a fatal crash on Veterans Memorial Highway has taken a turn. Authorities have stopped their hunt for a black SUV previously thought to be involved in the incident. Instead, the collision has now been attributed to a motorcycle operated by Christopher Johnson hitting pedestrian Melissa Winslow. Winslow sustained severe injuries as a result of the accident. Tragically, Johnson did not survive and was declared dead at the scene. Initially, it was believed that Winslow had been trapped under the SUV, but further investigation clarified that the SUV's driver had stopped to inspect the damage before leaving the site. The unfortunate event transpired when Winslow attempted to cross the highway. Johnson's motorcycle hit her, causing her to be thrown into the westbound lanes. The case continues to be under scrutiny by local authorities. STORY 3: Cobb Sheriff Recognized for 'Triple Crown' Accreditation Cobb County Sheriff Craig Owens recently received recognition at the Georgia Senate for a significant achievement by his office. His department has secured accreditations from the three most prestigious law enforcement credentialing authorities in the U.S - the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, the American Correctional Association, and the National Commission on Correctional Health Care. The Cobb Sheriff's Office now stands among an exclusive group of 100 sheriff's offices across the nation and only five in Georgia to have attained this honor. Owens underscored the critical role of professionalism in law enforcement during his remarks. He generously attributed this accomplishment to his devoted staff, whose efforts have materially elevated the agency's standards and services, ultimately benefiting the citizens of Cobb County. This achievement highlights the commitment of Sheriff Owens and his team to uphold the highest standards of law enforcement excellence, underscoring their dedication to serving the community with integrity and professionalism.

Break: TEDS STORY 6: 'The Right Hire': New Cobb Elections Director Brings Innovation to the Job Tate Fall, the recently appointed director of Cobb Elections, is infusing her role with a wealth of experience in election administration and a steadfast dedication to transparency and innovation. Having honed her skills in Virginia and Washington, D.C., Fall has set her sights on modernizing Cobb Elections through the integration of cutting-edge technology and strategic reorganization. Transparency is a cornerstone of Fall's leadership, as evidenced by her plans to host open houses that allow residents to observe election processes up close. Under her guidance, Cobb Elections has already witnessed notable improvements, including the creation of new staff roles and a heightened focus on operational efficiency. Fall has tackled challenges such as redistricting head-on, demonstrating a proactive approach and an unwavering commitment to accountability. Her efforts have not gone unnoticed, earning acclaim from the Cobb Board of Elections. STORY 7: With Brad Wheeler's support, Tre' Hutchins Hopes to Advance Cobb School Safety Plan In the wake of a shooting incident at McEachern High School, Leroy Tre' Hutchins, a member of the Cobb County Board of Education, has put forth a comprehensive school safety plan. This proposal has managed to secure a rare consensus across party lines. Key elements of the plan include deploying school support officers, procuring technology to detect weapons at events and within school premises, and conducting a financial analysis. Hutchins aspires to utilize surplus funds along with revenue generated from the Education Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax to offset the costs associated with these measures. While certain safety initiatives are already underway, Hutchins underscores the importance of an all-encompassing strategy to ensure student safety remains paramount. The potential ratification of this plan would mark a significant stride towards addressing safety concerns in Cobb County schools.

Male Northern Cardinals, Scarlet Tanagers, and House Finches all have striking red plumage that's thought to play a role in attracting mates. Males with the brightest red feathering tend to have the best luck with the females. Scientists think that a male's redness signals to females that he has just what it takes to help produce superior offspring. But just because a male is a brilliant shade of red... does that mean he's stronger or more fit than his duller-colored competitors? It might be so, but it's complicated…More info and transcript at BirdNote.org. Want more BirdNote? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter. Sign up for BirdNote+ to get ad-free listening and other perks.

My guest is Frank Mead, an Arizona native who's spent the last 10 years in the horticulture industry. Some of his experiences include working in the Conservation Core, a branch of Americore, where he helped to build trails in national parks and cooperated with fire crews during fire season. While he doesn't have a formal background in birding, his older sister is an avid birder and has taken him along for many birding outings. Conveniently, right before the backyard bird segment began, a nearby Northern Cardinal began calling!I apologize for all the cicadas in the background, as their sounds come and go throughout the episode.

Unless otherwise noted, all Web addresses mentioned were functional as of 4-28-23. TRANSCRIPT OF AUDIO From the Cumberland Gap to the Atlantic Ocean, this is Virginia Water Radio for the weeks of May 1 and May 8, 2023. SOUND – ~ 7 sec That's the sound of Toms Creek in Heritage Park in Blacksburg, Va., on the morning of April 25, 2023. Winding through the lowland portion of this 169-acre park, Toms Creek's floodplain features a number of vernal pools—seasonal bodies of water that typically dry up during the summer and provide spring habitat for amphibians, birds, and other creatures. Have a listen for about 20 seconds to some mystery bird sounds recorded near the creek and one of those pools on April 25, and see if you know, first, the four bird species you're hearing, and, second, the mobile device app used to record and identify those species. And here's a hint to the app name: a mythical, Medieval character with this name would be impressed with the app's technological wizardry. SOUNDS - ~21 sec – In order heard: Red-winged Blackbird, Ruby-crowned Kinglet, Northern Cardinal, Eastern Meadowlark, Cardinal again, Blackbird again. If you guessed the birds Red-winged Blackbird, Ruby-crowned Kinglet, Northern Cardinal, and Eastern Meadowlark, you're right! And if you guessed the app Merlin, you've got the right name for a highly useful bird-identification tool from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, located in Ithaca, New York. Merlin allows users to get help identifying birds by sound, photo, or answering three questions about what one is seeing. The Sound ID feature monitors birds sounds coming into one's mobile device and gives suggestions for species being heard; it currently has information on over 1000 species worldwide and over 500 in the United States and Canada. The Photo ID offers species suggestions based on photos taken by the user. And the Bird ID Wizard asks users questions about bird size, color, and activity and then gives possible matches. These features are supported by another Cornell program, eBird, through which thousands of birders around the world contribute bird sightings, photos, and recordings. More information about Merlin, eBird, and other Cornell Lab of Ornithology programs is available online at allaboutbirds.org. Thanks to Cornell for providing tools to help people learn about the feathered creatures inhabiting our streamsides, forests, city streets, backyards, and other habitats. And we let one more of those creatures—a Brown Thrasher, also recorded with Merlin on April 25—have the last calls.

Is there any doubt about the identity of America's best known red bird? Surely it's the cardinal or, as you'll find it in a bird book, the Northern Cardinal. The beautiful bird seen on so many bird feeders takes its name from the cardinals found in the Vatican, whose hats and robes are red. Only the male cardinal — seen right here — is red; females are a tasteful olive-brown with red highlights. Share this show with someone who likes cardinals.

This is Episode 51. Our bird of interest today is the Northern Cardinal, Cardinalis cardinalis.This species is widespread across the eastern and southern US. It's so well-known and loved that it's the state bird for 7 states—more than any other species.Northern Cardinals are among the most abundant birds in North America. They're familiar denizens of backyards that visit feeders all year long. So it shouldn't be surprising to hear that ornithologists have done a lot of research on this abundant and conspicuous species.~~ Leave me a review using Podchaser ~~Link to this episode on the Science of Birds websiteSupport the show
In Texas, Pennsylvania, and elsewhere, people have reported seeing Northern Cardinals that are red on one side and brown on the other, indicating that a bird is half male and half female. This anomaly occurs in other species of birds, as well, not just cardinals. Insects, too! Scientists call these bilateral gynandromorphs. Learn more at BirdNote.org.
For many of us, the Northern Cardinal is more than just a beautiful bird, it is a bird of comfort. Often associated with the embodiment of a loved one who has passed, this creature offers comfort and peace to many. It is also an amazing bird with some pretty enduring habits, biology, and behaviors, including some mutations that cause this well known red bird to be...YELLOW. Join us to learn about this colorful creature who has inspired more bird watchers and backyard bird feeding than any other bird and who appeals to just about everyone!

When poet Ada Limón moved to Kentucky with her husband for his work, she was having trouble adjusting to her new home. To connect with the place, she began learning about the local birds and plants. She found comfort in the idea of the nearly omnipresent state bird, the Northern Cardinal. That inspired a poem in which the state bird becomes a metaphor for love. Learn more at BirdNote.org.
英语新闻集锦｜用公厕里的烘手机烘干头发？烘手都嫌脏！｜Expert warns against using hand dryers in public restroomsAn M.D. candidate explained why you should never use those automatic hand dryers in public bathrooms.一位在读医学博士建议人们不要使用公共厕所内的自动烘手机，并做出了解释。TikToker @madmedicine recently shared a video about how those super convenient, contactless hand dryers actually don't stop the spread of bacteria. They make it worse.TikTok用户名为madmedicine的这位博士生最近分享了一个视频，指出这些超级方便的无接触烘手机事实上非但不能阻止病毒传播，还会加剧病毒传播。The medical student reacted to a popular TikTok trend where people use hand dryers to curl their hair.这位医学博士生的这一建议是针对TikTok上流行起来的一股用烘手机卷发的潮流。"I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but those hand dryers in public restrooms are extremely disgusting,” he explained. “There have been actual studies done on those hand dryers to see if they spread bacteria. Spoiler alert: They tend to spread more bacteria compared to just towels.”他解释道：“我不想带来坏消息，但是公共厕所内的烘手机非常恶心。针对烘手机是否会散播病毒曾有人做过研究。剧透警告：烘手机散播的病毒比毛巾还要多。”According to the Harvard Health blog, a 2018 study by the University of Connecticut and Quinnipiac University found that exposure to hot hand dryers exponentially grew bacteria colonies within a matter of seconds.哈佛健康博客显示，康涅狄格大学和昆尼皮亚克大学2018年的一项研究发现，使用热风烘手机在短短数秒内就能以指数级的速度滋生出细菌菌落。"Every time a lidless toilet is flushed, it aerosolizes a fine mist of microbes. This fecal cloud may disperse over an area as large as 6 square meters,” Harvard Health stated.哈佛健康指出：“无盖马桶每次冲水，含有细菌的气雾就会升腾而起。这些含有粪便细菌的气雾可扩散至6平方米远。”This means that each time someone flushes a toilet, particles of fecal bacteria spread through the air. When the bacteria comes in contact with a hot hand dryer, it multiplies. The best way to dry your hands and prevent bacteria from surviving on them is to use a paper towel.这意味着每当有人冲马桶，粪便细菌颗粒就会通过空气传播。当细菌接触到烘手机的热风后，就会成倍滋生。把手弄干同时防止细菌在手上存活的最佳办法就是用纸巾擦手。刷新你的认知：关于动物的10个鲜为人知的事实 | 10 lesser-known facts about animals that made people say ‘Aww'1. Trained African giant pouched rats have found thousands of unexploded landmines and bombs. Researchers have also trained these rats to detect tuberculosis. And most recently they are training them to sniff out poached wildlife trophies being exported out of African ports.经过训练的非洲巨囊鼠已经发现了数千枚未爆炸的地雷和炸弹。在研究人员的训练下，非洲巨囊鼠已经可以检测出肺结核。最近研究人员正在训练巨囊鼠在非洲港口嗅出偷猎的野生动物。2. In most Western cultures, black cats are considered a bad omen. But in Scottish lore, the arrival of a strange black cat signifies prosperity.在多数西方文化中，黑猫被视为不祥之物。但是在苏格兰传说中，神秘黑猫的到来预示着繁荣。3. Cheetahs are so shy that zoos give them their own emotional “support dogs”.猎豹天性十分害羞，所以动物园会给它们配备“狗狗朋友”陪伴其长大。4. Opposums get a lot of hate, but they clear many unwanted bugs and parasites from the ecosystem.很多人都很讨厌负鼠，但是它们会从生态系统清理掉大量烦人的虫子和寄生虫。5. A sloth's claws work the opposite way that human hand does. The default position is a tight strong grip, and sloths must exert effort to open them up. This is why sloths don't fall out of trees when they're asleep.树懒的爪子和人手的工作原理正好相反。树懒爪子的默认姿势是紧握，树懒必须用力才能将爪子打开。这就是为什么树懒睡着时不会从树上掉下来。6. A University Of Chicago study found that rats are just as capable of empathy as humans.芝加哥大学的一项研究发现，老鼠和人类一样有同理心，能够感同身受。7. The Northern Cardinal is probably the most 'romantic' bird species: they mate for life, travel together, sing before nesting, and during courtship, feed seed beak-to-beak.北美红雀很可能是最浪漫的鸟类，它们一生只有一个伴侣，两只鸟会一起旅行，筑巢前会唱歌，谈恋爱时还会嘴对嘴喂食。8.

Holiday cards often feature gorgeous red cardinals against a snowy landscape. So it's easy to assume the birds have always been a colorful presence in bleak Northern winters. But cardinals used to be Southern birds. By the second half of the 20th century, though, they were nesting as far north as Maine, the northern Midwest, and even southern Canada.

What's the reddest bird in North America? In the East, the Scarlet Tanager or maybe the Summer Tanager. But neither is seen nearly as often as the Northern Cardinal. In the Southwest, another candidate pops out like a bright red flare on the tip of a branch: the Vermilion Flycatcher. This dashing flycatcher evokes sparkling names, from the arid Southwest to South America: Mosquero Cardinal — or “cardinal-colored fly-killer” — and Brasita de Fuego or “little red-hot coal of fire.” Learn more at BirdNote.org.

Welcome to The Wild Card Podcast! This is episode 146 of our attempt at this whole podcasting thing!! Today's episode features: Jared Eaton (The Tarantula) blah blah blahing as Gary Everyman, Jeff Curtis (Lasereye) selling his soul to Paul Williams, and Ron Blair (Klondike) playing the Mussolini!! Throughout the episode, you'll hear the three of us discuss such varied topics as: the way this podcast is about staying indoors, a mind bending commercial (You don't want to see inside Ron's mind....), The Wild Card Book Club, insane numbers of prepositions, Jared improving his Dutch, thanking Famke Janssen for the privilege of being murdered by her, and occasionally we part from our tangents to discuss some of the creepiest mysteries of the century thus far. This week, Jared continues his break down of disappearances, strange happenings, human body parts showing up in unusual places, while Jeff and Ron solve the mysteries! Join us on this journey to wherever and we're sure that you'll find the solution to all the Mysteries of life as you listen to our Puzzling Podcast!Please like/subscribe and leave comments below!

This episode is a pursuit of a feeling -- a sense of oneness with everyone in the world and everything around you. If this sounds trippy, yes I do discuss psychedelic drugs. I also talk about an odd story from the history of medical ethics, a philosophical thought experiment, and God, the internet, and toilet paper. I don't know if I really accomplish an explanation of this sense of awe at the complex web that is reality, but explaining the feeling was never really the goal I suppose...just feeling it. Special Thanks to Kirk for helping with the music for this one.

This audio was captured in my backyard under a porch with the Tascam DR-40 mounted on a tripod with a deadcat windshield. This is a long unlooped recording of a heavy rain, gutters over flowing and then the calm.

You know how everyone is always talking about the cool rare birds they've seen? Time to shut up the haters with these amazing facts about common birds. We believe that all birds should be appreciated every day...so why not learn more about the birds we see every day? This episode covers lesser-known facts about common songbirds found in both urban and rural environments. Also, learn how zebra finches are learning songs via light-pulse transmissions (?!) and the unique dual-breeding patterns of a western North American flycatcher.

Their song is only different in its harsh intonation, making it sound like a "sore-throated" rendition of the Red-eyed Vireo song. Found in wet forest habitats, it sometimes overlaps with Red-eyed Vireos, making them difficult to separate to the untrained ear.This soundscape features two different Yellow-throated Vireos, both on breeding territory on the south share of Cootes Paradise along the Ravine Road Trail, bordering McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.In the final minutes of the soundscape, after 14m 30s, both Yellow-throated and Red-eyed Vireos are heard in contrast to one another.Also heard: Carolina Wren, American Redstart, Red-winged Blackbird, Yellow Warbler, Northern Cardinal, American Robin, Red-tailed Hawk, and more!Recorded on June 30, 2019.Audio recording and editing by Rob Porter.

The Winter Wren can have one of the most lengthy continuous songs of all of Ontario's breeding birds, and is amongst one of the loudest in spite of its tiny size.This soundscape was recorded at Petrel Point Nature Preserve in Red Bay, Ontario in July of 2018.Heard in this recording: Winter Wren, Great-crested Flycatcher, Black-throated Green Warbler, American Redstart, Black-capped Chickadee, Northern Cardinal, White-breasted Nuthatch, American Robin, Common Grackle, Brown Creeper, Yellow Warbler, and more.Audio editing & recording: Rob PorterAudio sourced from the Hamilton Bioacoustics Research Project of the Hamilton Naturalists' Club.For more information, see http://hamiltonnature.org/songscapes
A short recording that includes the song of the Eastern Whip-poor-will. This species is now only heard and seen in the Hamilton area during migration, as the local breeding populations have all collapsed. To hear one sing, you need to be up at night or at dawn during the brief migration window as they are a nocturnal bird.This song was a pleasant surprise discovery in our recordings. This recording begins at 5:41 a.m., April 24, 2019 at McMaster Forest in Ancaster, Ontario.Heard singing, calling, or both in this recording: Eastern Whip-poor-will, American Woodcock, Song Sparrow, Northern Cardinal, Field Sparrow, Eastern Towhee, Black-capped Chickadee.Editing by Doug Welch and Rob Porter.Audio sourced from the Hamilton Bioacoustics Research Project of the Hamilton Naturalists' Club.For more information, visit http://hamiltonnature.org/songscapes
This urban recording begins at dawn with the wind-down of the outlandish nocturnal mating calls ("peents") and display of the American Woodcock. Next comes the Song Sparrow and Northern Cardinal as the light grows. Finally, the Field Sparrows and Eastern Towhee begin their songs. Of the songbirds of the Hamilton area, these represent a mix of early migrants and year-round resident species.This soundscape was edited from recordings of the morning of April 10, 2019 at McMaster Forest in Ancaster, Ontario. This was the very first day the Eastern Towhee was heard singing at McMaster Forest on recording, which presumably means this species arrived overnight as a nocturnal migrant from more southern climes.Note that this location is urban, located between the communities of Dundas, Ancaster, and West Hamilton. The most prominent anthropogenic background noise is the 403 Highway and nearby train line. This soundscape has been lightly edited to reduce this noise.Heard singing, calling, or both in this episode: American Woodcock, Song Sparrow, Northern Cardinal, Field Sparrow, Eastern Towhee, Carolina Wren, American Crow, Canada Goose, American Goldfinch, Red-bellied Woodpecker, Common Grackle, Ring-billed Gull, Red-winged Blackbird.Audio editing by Rob PorterAudio sourced from the Hamilton Bioacoustics Research Project of the Hamilton Naturalists' Club. More specifically, this recording comes from one continuous recording started early March going through mid-May to capture the arrival dates of breeding songbirds.For more information, visit http://hamiltonnature.org/songscapes
Birds can be most abundant along "edge" habitats--between one discrete habitat and another. Here you will hear a mix of urban birds--Northern Cardinal, Blue Jay, Mourning Dove--along with the boreal species Yellow-rumped Warbler and a lakeside Song Sparrow. This soundscape was recorded close to a small road that divides ancient cedar forest from lake in a cottage setting.Recorded at Isthmus Bay, Georgian Bay, Ontario, Canada in July 2018.Audio editing: Rob PorterAudio sourced from the Hamilton Bioacoustics Research Project of the Hamilton Naturalists' Club.For more information, see http://hamiltonnature.org/songscapes
A continuous soundscape of morning field recordings from the Vinemount Meadows Nature Sanctuary in Vinemount, Ontario, Canada on April 7, 2019. Mildly edited to remove louder anthrogenic sounds.You will continually hear: Song Sparrow, Red-winged Blackbird, and American RobinAlso present from time to time: Mallard (or American Black Duck) , Canada Goose, Ring-billed Gull, Herring Gull, White-throated Sparrow, European Starling, Northern Cardinal, Savannah Sparrow, Common Grackle, Blue Jay, American Crow, Downy Woodpecker , Eastern Meadowlark, Brown-headed Cowbird , Red Squirrel, Golden-crowned Kinglet, Dark-eyed Junco, and Winter Wren.Audio sourced from the Hamilton Bioacoustics Research Project & Hamilton Naturalists' ClubAudio editing: Rob Porter The original raw field recordings are available under Creative Commons license at archive.org.For more information, see http://hamiltonnature.org/songscapes

[Bird singing] That's a female Northern Cardinal. And here's a female Venezuelan Troupial [bird singing]. Many people assume that male songbirds are the ones doing the crooning. But more than 660 species of songbirds are known in which the females sing as well. And there are still 3,500 species of songbird in which the female singing status is unknown. Which implies that there could be plenty more female singers to be found.“We often talk to people, both people who are scientists and ornithologists but also people who are birders and citizen scientists, who say, ‘Yeah you know, I have this story where a female was clearly singing.'”Biologist Lauryn Benedict, of the University of Northern Colorado.These field reports inspired Benedict and Cornell behavioral ecologist Karan Odom to start the Female Bird Song Project with a group of colleagues in 2017. The goal is to get professional researchers and citizen scientists alike to submit recordings and field notes of birdsong from both males and females.LB: “And we're hoping to really give them ways to report that and document it so that we can aggregate that information in useful ways.”On the project's website, FemaleBirdSong.org, you can hear various birds of both sexes—and complex duets sung by pairs of songbirds, like these Black Bellied Wrens [birds singing].Now Benedict and Odom are asking scientists to consider the existence of female birdsong in their research, even when it's not their primary focus—for example, from studying avian neurobiology to collecting population data for bird conservation. They wrote up their goals in the journal The Auk: Ornithological Advances. [Karan J. Odom and Lauryn Benedict, A call to document female bird songs: Applications for diverse fields]Studying female birdsong is no simple task. Here's Karan Odom: “So the biggest thing is to see the bird, which is number one not trivial. And number two, in the past since birdsong has been thought of as a male trait, it might not be that researchers were always verifying the sex of the bird by finding it and looking at it. So we're asking people to please be aware that females sing and to actually get a look at the bird that you're recording.”These researchers hope that more awareness of female song will lead to better-informed studies that can tell us when and why female birds are singing. And perhaps reveal aspects of avian life that no one has yet considered.—Sarah Witman(The above text is a transcript of this podcast) Bird songs courtesy of http://femalebirdsong.org

Jim Carpenter opened the very first Wild Birds Unlimited store near his home in Indianapolis, Indiana, in 1981. At the time it was one of very few bird specific retail outlets in the country, and since then, Wild Birds Unlimited has grown to include more than 300 stores across the US and Canada. His new book, The Joy of Birdfeeding, The Essential Guide to Attracting and Feeding our Backyard Birds, was published late last year. Jim joins host Nate Swick to talk about how Wild Birds Unlimited came to be, and what he thinks are the most important things people should know about feeding birds. Also, Greg Neise and Ted Floyd are back to talk about the most magical sounds of spring, duck songs. Or rather, the things that ducks do that aren't quacks.

This is a bird that likes to attack windows! Join us to find out why and what you can do about it.
With the male’s year-round bright red plumage, the Northern cardinal is one of the recognizable birds in the region. Rick Jones discusses the habits of these colorful birds and how to attract cardinals to your yard.
Just a few minutes of music from one of our most beautiful birds, the Northern Cardinal.
Jeremy and Michael review the Northern Cardinal and discuss the diuretic effect of coffee, travel-inflicted constipation, Sting, why people love Chic-fil-A, the woman in the Carlsbad Lagoon, dying while doing what you love, and hoverboards in 2016.
Michael Palin presents the northern cardinal from a New York's Central Park. Northern Cardinals are finch-like birds and make British robins look positively anaemic. They are common residents in the south and east of North America where they live in woods, parks and gardens. Your first sighting of these vermilion birds with their black masks and outrageous crests comes as a shock. They seem too tropically colourful to brave the dull North American winter. Only the male Cardinals are bright red. Females are browner with flashes of red on their wings and red bills. Both sexes obtain their red colours from seeds and other foods which contain carotenoid pigments. Their familiarity and eye-catching colours have endeared cardinals to North Americans. No fewer than seven states, including Kentucky, Illinois and Ohio have adopted cardinals as their state bird and it's also the mascot of many famous sports clubs including the St. Louis Cardinals baseball team.
