I do want to caution some potential viewers -- it contains MUCH vulgar
language and a lot of scatological references, so be prepared; probably "R"
rated. Entertaining, yes, but whether it portrays extreme birders/listers
and bird conservation in a good light or not, you can be the judge. The
video of the birds is high quality/class.
