Lesser Redpoll

Dear Mr BirdBander,
   This is the only pic I have of myself and it was taken over 5 years ago.

Alan took a nice one, didn't he?
My question is - Can birds adopt birds?

First comes shelter
Then comes home
Then comes a poem, maybe homes in Nome.

Thank you,

Dear Lesser RedPoll,
   Yes, birds adopt birds every day and night somewhere in the world. They rarely fill out any paperwork, though, and almost never sign anything. What a great question, Lesser. And what a nice poem.

Write again,
Mr BirdBander

Rosie

Dear  Mr BirdBander,
   I think I am a Rose-breasted Grossbeak. Every other year I pass through the Chicago area. Can you recommend a spot to eat?
Getting hungry,
Rosie

Dear Rosie,
   I don't usually recommend eating spots, but here are 4 with birds' names: Bird's Nest, Blackbird, Blokes and Birds, and Parrot Cage. If you try any, please let me know what you think.
Were you named after Rosie Greer?
Mr BirdBander

Hear the Roar!

Dear Mr. BirdBander,

The Ravens, lords of the ball in Baltimore
Those spicy coppery pearls of lore
Yes, Patapsco's mouth
That mouth to the south
Is home to the team. Hear the roar!

Cheerily,
Birdie FeatherTail


Dear Birdie FeatherTail,

Thank you for the poem. The Baltimore Ravens are a team inspiration to ravens everywhere. Pick up the ball and run with it!

Cheerily back to you,
Mr. BirdBander
