I am a lifelong avid birder and have spent more than 50 years learning birds’ names the hard way, just like Reynolds. I welcome the coming changes. The names we have assigned to birds over the years were chosen selectively and with great prejudice. Bird names in the future will be more interesting, inclusively chosen, educational and inviting to new enthusiasts than our present roster.~ Craig Kesselheim, Southwest Harbor
