If you're interested in learning to ID birds by ear, check out Larkwire[1][2]. (Full disclosure: it's my app.) I can attest that knowing what you're hearing is really a delightful way to expand one's connection to nature

Self-promotion here, but my app, Supercoco, is far better for serious learners (Spanish only, iOS only). Focuses on speaking and listening rather than reading and writing, and is based on a large quantity of high quality content (about 300

If you object to high CEO compensation for large NGOs, support small NGOs. They are typically run on a shoe-string, and the leaders are idealists who are definitely not in it for the money. One of my favorites is the Alliance for Tompotika
