Bill and Steve look into the Dawn Chrous, that early morning explosion of bird song that refuses to let you sleep in. And, for all you Daniel-haters out there, this episode is 100% Daniel-free (but Bill and Steve are both crying on the inside. We miss Daniel buckets, and we're betting you do, too).This episode was recorded on April 10, 2025 at the California Road Rereation Area in Orchard Park, NY.Episode Notes and LinksAre there orioles in China? Bill shared the classic Chinese poem from the Tang Dynasty (~600–900 CE) - the one called "Feelings on Awakening from Drunkenness on a Spring Day" by Li Bai, and Steve wondered: Are there Orioles in China. Turns out that, yes, there are, and they're more oriole-y (?) than ours! That's because our New World orioles, like the one we're betting you're thinking of right now (the well-known orange and black Baltimore Oriole) belong to the family Icteridae and are not closely related to Old World orioles. Instead, they're closely related to blackbirds and meadowlarks, fellow family members in the Icteridae. Old world orioles in Europe and Asia, on the other hand, belong to the family Oriolidae. Our orioles were named after them because of the similarities to the old world orioles in behavior, diet, and appearance, but, despite the similarities – these families are not closely related. The similarities evolved independently due to convergent evolution (when species develop similar traits in response to similar environmental pressures). So, yes, Steve, there are orioles in China, but it's tough to say for sure which oriole Li Bai heard in his drunken stupor because Birds of China reports seven species found throughout the country, and, as we pointed out, given Li Bai's state, maybe the bird was only in his head. Is there a Thorpe's Law? When Bill mentioned William Thorpe, a British biologist and ornithologist, Steve thought he recalled there was an ecological law or concept credited to Thorpe. Bill scoured the Internet, but the closest thing he could find was Taylor's power law, an empirical law in ecology that relates the variance of the number of individuals of a species per unit area of habitat to the corresponding mean by a power law relationship. If that made sense to you, Bill asks if you could kindly explain it to him. bird Can someone look at a sound spectrograph and identify the bird? The guys wondered if a sound researcher looking at sound spectrographs (visual representations of bird song) could get good enough to know what bird they're looking at just by the visual? An internet search was inconclusive- a lot of sites talk about using the spectrographs as an aid to get better at understanding and ID'ing bird song, but we couldn't find any that specifically addressed this question. We've emailed some bird biologists and we'll update these notes when we hear back!Social Monogamy vs. Sexual Monogamy: Steve talked about how he'd heard that even in species that bond for life, members of the pair will still seek out other mates. True? First, let's make a distinction that Steve alluded to in the episode: that is, social vs. sexual monogamy. In birds, "monogamy" often refers to a social bond, where a pair stays together and raises offspring together. However, this doesn't necessarily mean they are sexually faithful to each other. So, socially monogamous doesn't equal sexual monogamy. Looking in to this, we landed on a passage in The Sibley Guide to Bird Life and Behavior – a birder's bible if there is one – it reports: “90 percent of all bird species are socially monogamous, but some level of cheating is common. Cheating, or “extra-pair copulation” also occurs, but rarely, among birds of sexually monogamous, mated-for-life species, “but is not yet known how many species engage in extra-pair copulations, since many species remain to be studied. However, it appears that genetic monogamy may be the exception rather than the rule among birds.” Sponsors and Ways to Support UsGumleaf Boots, USA (free shipping for patrons)Thank you to Always Wandering Art (Website and Etsy Shop) for providing the artwork for many of our episodes.Support us on Patreon.Check out the Field Guides merch at our Teespring store.

Dryden, NY is a town in Tompkins County with a population of about 14,029, located east of Ithaca in the Finger Lakes region. But, from 1989 to 1999 a cloud rested over the town leading many to call it “The Village of the Damned.” In this first of a two-part episode we will examine the events of 1989, 1990, and 1993 in Dryden -- a mass murder, a mystery of lost child, and the brutal murder of a friend out of jealousy.

With this sharp and witty debut collection, author Kate Doyle captures precisely that time of life when so many young women are caught in between, pre-occupied by nostalgia for past relationships--with friends, roommates, siblings--while trying to move forward into an uncertain future. In "That Is Shocking," a college student relates a darkly funny story of romantic humiliation, one that skirts the parallel story of a friend she betrayed. In others, young women long for friends who have moved away, or moved on. In "Cinnamon Baseball Coyote" and other linked stories about siblings Helen, Evan, and Grace, their years of inside jokes and brutal tensions simmer over as the three spend a holiday season in an amusing whirl of rivalry and mutual attachment, and a generational gulf widens between them and their parents. Throughout, in stories both lyrical and haunting, young women search for ways to break free from the expectations of others and find a way to be in the world. Written with crystalline prose and sly humor, the stories in I Meant It Once (Algonquin Books, 2023) build to complete a profoundly recognizable portrait of early adulthood and the ways in which seemingly incidental moments can come to define the stories we tell ourselves. For fans of Elif Batuman, Ottessa Moshfegh, Patricia Lockwood, and Melissa Bank, these stories about being young and adrift in today's world go down easy and pack a big punch. A former bookseller at Buffalo Street Books in Ithaca, Kate Doyle has published her stories in No Tokens, Electric Literature, Split Lip, Wigleaf, and elsewhere. In 2021 she was selected from 1100 emerging writers as an A Public Space Writing Fellow, and she has received support for her work from Virginia Center for the Creative Arts, Hawthornden, the Adirondack Center for Writing, NYU Paris, and the Community Arts Partnership of Tompkins County. She currently lives in Amsterdam. Recommended Books: Cara Blue Adams, You Never Get It Back Alexandra Chang, Tomb Sweeping Stephanie Vaughn, Sweettalk  Chris Holmes is Chair of Literatures in English and Associate Professor at Ithaca College. He writes criticism on contemporary global literatures. His book, Kazuo Ishiguro as World Literature, is under contract with Bloomsbury Publishing.

Granison resigned due to his battle with cancer, and passed away shortly after. Local Democrats chose former Director of the Tompkins County Public Library Susan Currie as their nominee. Currie ran unopposed taking over 98 percent of the vote according to unofficial results published by the county board of elections. With Currie's victory Democrats will return to the 11-3 majority they briefly lost after Granison resigned in October.

Creativity has been a driving force in Werner Sun's life since he was a kid. The urge both to process his inner life and express it to others led him to play the piano as a youth, explore physics research later in life, and develop into a multimedia visual artist. Werner sees creativity as a safe space to explore the unknown, develop trust and patience in yourself, and grow through challenges. In this episode he shares fascinating insights into the creative process and how it can serve as both a catalyst for personal healing and a vehicle for intimate connections with people and the environment. This conversation will flip the script of everything you thought you knew about the world and thrust you into new ways of seeing and thinking about art and life. We discuss the importance of play, trusting the process, obstacles as portals to growth, vulnerability as an act of generosity, and much much more! Werner Sun @wernersun is a visual artist who lives and works in Ithaca, NY. His work has appeared in such venues as the Memorial Art Gallery of the University of Rochester, Aon in New York City, Manifest Gallery in Cincinnati, OH, and the Islip Art Museum. His essays and images have been published in The Brooklyn Rail, Interalia Magazine, and Stone Canoe. He is the 2019 recipient of the Aon-CUE Artist Empowerment Award from the CUE Art Foundation as well as a 2017 recipient of a Strategic Opportunity Stipend from the Community Arts Partnership of Tompkins County, NY. Werner recently completed a sculpture commission for the Cornell University Botanic Gardens that is currently installed in the Nevin Welcome Center.
