Why Don't Woodpeckers Get Headaches?: And Other Bird Questions You Know You Want to Ask

In 1983, Mike O'Connor established the Bird Watcher's General Store on Cape Cod, which is likely the first retail outlet in the United States exclusively focused on birdwatching. Over the years, he has addressed countless inquiries regarding various aspects of birds, both in his store and informally in public spaces such as supermarkets. These queries have covered a wide array of topics, from specific species identification—such as questioning the existence of flamingos—to practical bird feeding advice and peculiar concerns about backyard bird behaviors. Despite the often humorous nature of these questions, O'Connor has maintained a professional demeanor while providing insightful responses.
