Before I Go All Peruvian...


I am knitting together some images and stories from the Peru trip in between putting an issue of Bird Watcher's Digest to bed, interviewing new prospective employees, and having meetings about tasty things like budgets and printers.

But before I go all Peruvian on you, I wanted to issue fair warning about something:

I will be appearing (if I don't get bumped for a celebrity chef) LIVE tomorrow morning (Friday September 21, 2007) on the Martha Stewart Living radio show. Those of you who have a subscription to Sirius Satellite Radio can listen in between 8:30 and 9 am ET. The show is on channel 112.

And if you don't currently get Sirius, there's still time! Or, you can sign up for the free online trial at this link.

I have no idea what this will be like, but there will certainly be backyard bird questions asked and answered. I have been told I have a face for radio, so I've got that going for me.... And, sadly, there will be no half-& half in tomorrow morning's coffee.

If there is any among you who does not know who Martha Stewart is, ask the Wiki Gods and you shall be enlightened.

¡Mañana, vamos a Peru!

    I think you should go all FYI on Martha Stewart. Tell her what for. Birds rule and all that.

    Look forward to hearing it. Martha et. al. will love your shtick.

    Ahhhhhh! I clipped a Post-It on my handbag for the morning... A reminder to put aside office workload and find you. I like Anon's suggestion "Unleash your inner comic". Please do!

    I am sure MS just *thinks* she knows all about birds so you will amaze and thrill her, no doubt. Have fun!!!

    Next thing we'll see are photos of you and Julie with your new bud Martha on Indigo Hill!

    There's no way I'll be chatting with Martha--it's her show but it's hosted by other folks. I'll do my best to be phunny..."So this solitary vireo walks into The Milky Way bar in Amsterdam. And when he comes out, he's a red-eyed vireo"

    I've got a million of 'em.

    Bill,
    Great job on Morning Living this morning on Martha Stewart Living Radio. I enjoyed your telling them about city birds too. Nice to hear on my drive in.

    Thanks,
    Kevin

    Thanks Kevin! They said they want me to come back on the show again soon. While I was doing the interview from our birding tower phone, the bird show around me was incredible. Loads of migrants. It was hard not to squeal and shout.
