They flock to visit exotic lotus ponds to take extravagant baths in India. They frolic upon the ice shelves in the extreme cold of the Antarctic southern hemisphere. They are your neighbors coming to visit you, wet their whistles, and sing sweetly to you in your own backyard.
They are our dear feathered friends, birds, whose lives—filled with flight, feathers, spectacular colors, dappled eggs, and the sweetest songs—intersect with people’s in all parts of the world.
