Do I hear the bells pealing across the land? Is that distant roar shouts of jubilation from the populace? Are new holidays being declared? Well, maybe not but the long-awaited Bird Week IX is finally here. Hard to believe we have not had one at TLT since February of 2020, that is Pre-Pandemic for those keeping track. We are past due for certain. So let us commence.
Our first candidate for Head Bird for the season is a newly edited and previously unpublished Tufted Puffin (though another one of the puffin has been seen before). This little bird prefers the cold waters of the northern Pacific and was captured in Alaska’s Kachemak Bay south of Homer. I imagine you know that a group of crows is a “murder,” hawks, a kettle, eagles a congregation and doves a cote. So do you know what four puffins are called? KISS:)
