I recently got in trouble for suggesting that
birders are too geeky. Turns out there are plenty of famous and cool people who are not only birders, but bird blog readers. As I set out to do this latest
I and the Bird, I checked some celebirdy Twitter feeds and found I could do a whole I and the Bird just by retweeting their tweets!

Nice, Rob! But don't mock Brangelina... they left some very complimentary comments in the Guest Book at Panama's bird-crazy Canopy Lodge.
ReplyDeleteI'm telling you Mike, they are one of us!
ReplyDeleteHilARious, Rob. Well done. Double thanks for the nearly nude Borat visual (NOT).
ReplyDeleteLaura, that's the problem with celebirdies. You never know who is going to show up, or what they are going to say!
ReplyDeleteLoved the last set of these, the new ones are even better! Great job, thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteExcellent edition, Rob!
ReplyDeleteYou definitely had me clicking on each and every post..Yeah, I admit ..I sometimes don't read each and every post on I and the Bird..
ReplyDeleteYours was great..and I found a few blogs that I have not seen before.
Thanks.
Thanks for clicking through dAwN :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat job Rob - these are a hoot. But OMG - pairing me with Glenn Beck?!?!?!? Excuse me, I'm now going to kill myself.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, nice job.
It takes someone special to make Glenn Beck cry :-)
ReplyDeleteSounding like a politician there, Rob.
ReplyDeleteGreat job Rob!
ReplyDeleteThat was freakin' awesome Rob!
ReplyDeleteRockin' photoshoppage, Rob - one of the most entertaining IATBs evah!
ReplyDeleteI hope this doesn't count against my 15 minutes of fame - I'm still hoping for worldwide attention for an extraordinary birding or blogging accomplishment. Who knew the field would be so overtaken by the rich and famous?
ReplyDeleteBiebirder kills me! Hahah! Thanks for the great post. Are you aware of the new movie coming out with Jack Black, Steve Martin and Owen Wilson? Yeah, a birding movie. A rendition of the book "The Big Year."
