Cornell and safety in birding, steppe habitats of the world, birding Portugal, and "discovering" new species

Hey folks, first off, we're covering a heavy topic today as we reflect on safety in nature in light of recent news and the Cornell Lab of Ornithology's role in taking a stance on it. 

Other topics we cover include: 

• Why birding in Portugal is just gosh-darn fun
• Steppe habitats of the world
• How the word "discovering" might be overused in new species

Plus, check out our tours!

• Birds Georgia is collaborating with Hillstar Nature in India
• Alvaro's Adventures has upcoming tours in India, birds and wine features, and soon a newly scheduled tour in Thailand 
• See Mollee's most recent tour announcements on her website
