thanks for the informative blogging.
Thanks John for bringing attention to this interview. Dr. Kress provided important information that every backyard birder needs to know. I also summarized this interview in a recent blog post entitled "Saving 1,007,000,000 backyard birds..." to further bring to light the valuable information that he shared in this interview. I'll add that link to your post.
Best regards,
Joe Lamp'l
