We now see ourselves on the cusp of a change in leadership in the United States. A brand new administration will replace the current one in January, and we're already seeing people looking forward to what this means for birds, public lands, and conservation. Into that conversation comes Tykee James, who is, among other things, the host of the wildlife and politics podcast On Word for Wildlife of the Wildlife Observer Network. He joins host Nate Swick from Washington, DC, to talk about what we can expect in coming months.  Also, a wild story about the on and off sale of Salineño Preserve in South Texas.
