What's in a Name?

This is the first special episode! These special episodes are a way for us to learn about other aspects of birds and birding. These episodes could be about anything from bird anatomy to why birds migrate to birds and cats. If you have an idea for a new species episode, send your idea in the Special Episodes section of the Carrier Pigeon Corner form. This episode is all about bird names, what we name them, why we name them, and some of the strangest names out there. 

Check out some pictures of the birds mentioned in the episode
