The Bird Banter Podcast Episode #27 with Tammy and David McQuade
In this episode I talk with the McQuades, a birding couple who are on their 5th consecutive big year in the lower 48 states, and this is their 4th consecutive year of >600 species in the lower 48. We talk about their birding stories, birding as a couple, birding while working full time, birding on what they call the last ABA birding frontier, the Gulf of Mexico, where they bird at speeds of >50 mph using radar to find the widespread birds, and how social media has enhanced their efforts and experiences. Check out my post on birdbanter.com where I will leave more detailed information, but here are a few links about topics discussed. https://www.facebook.com/david.mcquade.96 https://www.facebook.com/david.mcquade.96 Dorian Anderson's blog from his bicycle big year. http://bikingforbirds.blogspot.com/ Christian Hagenlocher's The Birding Project page: http://www.thebirdingproject.
