112 Flights, 41 countries, over 6000 Birds Guest: Noah Strycker, Associate editor of "Birding" magazine, author of books including "Among Penguins," "The Thing with Feathers," "Birding Without Borders," and, "Birds of the Photo Ark." He also guides expeditions in the polar regions. 41 countries, 100,514 miles, and one year to see over half the world’s birds. But for Noah Strycker, it was a lot more than just a list. Jennifer Ackerman: The Bird Way Guest: Jennifer Ackerman, author, "The Genius of Birds" and "The Bird Way: A New Look at How Birds Talk, Work, Play, Parent, and Think"  Birds play with abandon, but they also relay very specific messages about dangers. Some are doting parents, but others make their new chicks work hard just to see the light of day. Their chicks are the toughest on the planet. No helicopter parenting here.
