Episode 10: Diversified Farm at Allerton Park

Nate & Evan podcast live from the Diversified Farm at Allerton Park today. As a common nesting spot for Barn Swallow, Evan provides ID tips for the Barn Swallow, Tree Swallow, Cliff Swallow, Northern Rough Winged Swallow, and Bank Swallow. All of these swallows can be found at the same time on a power line. 

Nate provides helpful hints on how to remove a hummingbird from your garage. I will give you spoiler alert, it is not with chop sticks. 

We spend most of the episode answering questions from viewers. We have had some really great questions including:

1. Why do birds tweet?
2. Can birds from different species talk to each other?
3. Why is the Red Headed Woodpecker the "mascot" of the club"
4. How do you become a member?

We also give a teaser on Nate and & Evan's upcoming birding trip to an Illinois mecca of birding.

Listen, enjoy, and happy birding!
