Bald eagle diaries, it feels like you accidentally fell into someone else's dream. I mean, parrots are just unbelievably smart. So magpies can recognize themselves in a mirror. Listen to the episode on primates.
Birds! Horned screamers! Winged pirates! Professional bird-person and all around cool dude James Maley joins Alie to talk about bird mating, monogamy, the cult of ornithology, absurd birds, parrots that are smarter than your friends' kids, a surprising fact about owl ears and history's most tragically zealous bird nerds. If you love birds, you'll be at home. If a bird did you dirty, you'll open your heart and learn to love again.
