Love this! As a life-long birdwatcher, I started as a child. Going on walks with my dad in North Dakota (just south of where you were). Loved the Merlin screenshot too… modern birdwatching. 😎I miss the birds of the northern plains, especially the meadowlark.
I'm not surprised the meadowlark is North Dakota's state bird. Distinctive and lovely both to see and hear. Merlin is a great teaching tool: I was never great at songs (and still am not) but there are a few I'm now pretty confident with.
