BILL THOMPSON III is the Editor of Bird Watcher’s Digest and author of a number of books about birds. His most recent effort is a wonderful and unique bird guide geared for “tweens”, young people ages 8 to 14: .  To make sure his book was written for the right audience, Bill asked his eleven-year old daughter’s classmates for suggestions. The result is a natural history guide that is refreshing, funny and very age appropriate titled: THE YOUNG BIRDER’S GUIDE TO BIRDS OF EASTERN NORTH AMERICA. . Many adults will also find this guide useful. Also a guest on tonight’s show is PHOEBE THOMPSON, Bill’s daughter. Phoebe will talk about her birding experiences, her most wanted species and what it’s like to find herself pictured in a field guide dressed as the archetypical birder.
