Episode Synopsis
An eyewitness account of a warbler (Ovenbird often spotted in Arizona) landing on the ocean off Mexico's east coast, taking what appeared to be a break from its southerly migration to wintering grounds in South America, then launching back into the air to continue its journey. This account by a distinguished scientist upends long-held beliefs in the scientific community about presumed mortality among birds that run out of energy flying over large bodies of water. Bird of the episode: the Verdin. Birding hotspot: Willcox Playa in southeastern Arizona. Friend of Wildlife: Liberty Wildlife in Phoenix.
