Michigan singer and songwriter Joel Mabus has written a delightful "Birds Alphabet"--in the genre of "Sailor's Alphabet" and "Lumberman's Alphabet" songs. You can find it on his website. I plan to sing Joel's song in Suzanne Mrozak's "Bird Songs" workshop at the New England Folk Festival (NEFFA) in Massachusetts in April. That's a workshop originally dreamed up by the late Mary LaMarca, abetted by her husband George Stephens, me, and Suzanne. We'll be doing it again this year in Mary's honor. LOTS and LOTS of songs to choose from, and never enough time...
