Swans and Robots

Do you think the words "swan" and "robots" have ever been used in the same sentence before? I can't imagine in what context. Well, there's a first time for everything: I've published two recent articles, one on swans and another on robots, for Audubon.org, and wanted to share them here.

First, with incredible custom artwork by Lilli Carre, is a very silly piece I wrote about the modifications I'd have if I were a birding cyborg robot.

Next, with an image from Lynn Long / Audubon Photography Awards, is a piece encouraging birders to seek out wild swans -- not domesticated pond floaties.

Enjoy!!!
