On this episode I talk with Tim Lenz, a longtime back-end developer for eBird, member of record-breaking Team Sapsucker big days, and now the creator of BirdingApp, a new phone app that offers messaging, route planning, real-time rare bird alerts and more. Check it out.

As always contact me with suggestions for great guests, or any questions or comments.

On the blog on BirdBanter.com I'll list lots more related info and links of possible interest.

Until next time, good birding and good day!

Eric Hope is my guest for this episode of the podcast. I met Eric while chasing a couple of rare shorebirds at the Mouth of the Cedar River hotspot in southern King County, WA and thought at the time he might be an interesting guest. In the next few days he continued to find great shorebirds there, and I was sure I wanted to talk with Eric. I hope you enjoy.

As always suggestions for future guests are helpful. Contact me here.
