Magnolia Warbler, carved by Bob Spear

For International Coffee Day, make a commitment to buying and drinking bird-friendly coffee. Why? For the birds, of course! The Magnolia Warbler (photo of one carved by Bob Spear is above) is one of several warbler species that migrates to coffee-growing areas.

Woodcarving of male Scarlet Tanager: a red songbird with black wings. This bird id visible in the foreground from head to rump, in profile, perched on a branch. Behind it is a nest of twigs and several palmate, toothed leaves made of green-painted metal. Behind that is the carving of the female, a yellow and olive-colored bird facing (mostly) the camera.
This pair of Scarlet Tanagers were created by Bob Spear in 1985 and took him 67 hours. Scarlet Tanagers migrate to coffee-growing regions and can be affected by coffee-growing practices.
