    One’s passion for what they treasure - so good to see it doesn’t always has to be material accumulation. Learning & preserving the precious life we have here on our planet needs to be our first priority, then all the others will fall inline. Thank you David Allen Sibley

    In addition to his physical books I also have the book as an app on my smartphone which I use all the time. On the app you can hear samples of the calls of all the birds as well as look at his paintings.

    Beautiful! The pandemic has given me time to appreciate the natural world. I have been drawing birds with watercolor pencils, and listening to the birdsong. I love to look at bluejays, love to listen to the mockingbirds. I hope birds get joy from flying, I think I would.

    Excellent field guides. Mr. Sibley is also very generous, donating copies for our auction in support of the Ridgefield Wildlife Refuge.

    What a talent! David reminds me of Mr Rogers as well as painter Bob Ross who wants to “have a friendly little bird over here,” he speaks while he paints. “Awwh that’s nice.” Lol 🎨 🦢 🤗 🌞

    Wow! First of all Jane Pauley looks fantastic! And WOW can this man paint! I never knew this about him even though I am an avid backyard birder. I am excited to pick up a volume of his work

    As a child I watched backyard birds, fascinated by their chirps and flight. There was no artifice, just "being."

    Good... Brooklyn growing up... I looked for birds, butterflies and trees...
    Older, I explored many hikes throughout the states. Always referenced a field guide. You can take the girl out of Brooklyn.
    Great interview, thanks very much.☺

      I think the VO doesn't match the footage. He gestures first to the RB and then to the BH.

    You’ll notice he refers to himself and the rest of us as ‘birders’ not bird-watchers. It is the preferred term
