Birding is a major component in my life. I am opposed to use of the word "should" and overuse of the word "amazing". I like to travel. And the rest of this will be one rambling sentance because the first ones are as curt as a crisply dressed automaton so I also like to travel especially to tropical places where the birding can be ridiculously exhilirating and general experiences surreal such as the following I have had: fighting off a brazen kinkajou in Podocarpus Park, Ecuador, a day in Costa Rica of almost stepping on a jumping viper followed by watching a moustached local fellow cry because I wouldnt go eat tamales and drink with him with strange Nicaraguan TV playing in the background, sitting next to a one-eyed coca chewing (and smelling) non-Spanish speaking eldery woman on a small bus in Bolivia travelling down one of the scariest roads I have ever seen, and as for non-travelling info. oh yes I am trying to finish up a masters in biology at ISU: molecular phylogeny of Automolus with character mapping of vocalizations; Foliage-gleaners don't really glean the foliage, its more like poking and prodding while giving occasional sharp calls and staccato songs.
