About this episode
If you’re trying to spot a bird, you should look up — right? While it’s true that there are many beautiful birds to see in the sky, plenty of species are easier to find by keeping your eyes and ears to the ground. You may encounter towhees using their powerful feet to kick up leaf litter beneath dense underbrush. American Pipits and small shorebirds often look like clods of mud before they start running across a roadside field. There are even some colorful warblers who prefer to skulk!
