Personal reflections and commentary on wild birds, birding, birders, birdwatching, and other natural history topics of interest

My fascination with birds dates to earliest childhood. Entries in my high school senior yearbook profess my interest in ornithology. Birds and their conservation were the focus of a 33-year career as a professional wildlife biologist with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service that took me from the westernmost Aleutian Islands to the political intrigue of Washington, D.C. In retirement, birds remain my constant obsession.

Darn it, I wish people would quit saying that. We DO NOT come from monkeys. Monkeys and Humans come from a common ancestor that was neither monkey nor human.
Monkeys may be the closet thing to us now, but at an earlier time we were much closer to the common ancestor than to the monkeys now.
Please try to get that right.
Have a nice day.
Okay, anonymous, your point is well taken and I get it. But the main purpose of the post was to highlight what I thought was a really cool evolutin-based song, and I think it would be pretty difficult to build a slong around the phrase, "We share a common ancestor with the monkeys."
I apologise.
No apologies necessary!
