It was great!! They got me at "they've been piping sand all day" and had me
all the way to "I wanna put the watching back into bird-watching." And I
agree. "That's gold." I just wish they put a bit more time into the
conservation part of things. They did mention a lot of the problem areas of
birding and our ability to save and care for birds outside of birding which
was great. I hope they do their next film mostly about that. While watching
the killdeers I thought there could easily be a documentary about the grass
crazy weed angry mowing folk - and this can be their sound track

For those in this group who are chasing birds for lists, or if you get
offended easily, or don't appreciate some edgy young humor, this is
definitely not the movie for you, it will suck. I believe most others will
enjoy it.
Happy (bird) watching,
D.
