Ive been learning about birds

“During the molting period which follows nesting, singing stops: at this time birds have no reason to sing; their energy is going into molting and they do not wish to call attention to themselves.”
pg. 48

from A Bird’s-eye View of Birds by Douglas and Elizabeth Fugitt, which we found at Nisqually this month. Thanks to whomever left it there, I’ve been enjoying it on the bus. Very very basic stuff, but that’s where I’m at.
