@@Felice_Enellen You are correct. It's a "dirty job" that is too dirty for Mike Rowe and that's saying something. It's the kind of dirty that he won't do.

Mike, please please please get some more eyes on bat rehabbing!! This pup season has been SO SO hard, Bat World Sanctuary really needs more eyes, and you'd be the PERFECT person, especially with this new series!!! Please help us educate people about these little guys, they need it so badly this year!

I’m fortunate to be able to say that there are several bats that live nearby; and they come out in the evening and eat mosquitoes. I can see them flying around the area (I’m on 6 acres so my back yard is fairly large); and sometimes even hear their sonar chirps.

Yes....and go to Austin Texas. It has the largest bat colony in the United States, and Brazoria county in south Texas has the largest bird migrating area in the entire world.

Maybe those bats should pull themselves up by their bootstraps.
I’ve been a bird nerd for most of my 69 years. And I’ve been a Mike Rowe fan since the first episode of Dirty Jobs. What a nice pairing.

Absolutely chuffed about Mike spending time with John and the young people who are obviously interested in birds. Love how John calls himself a “bird nerd” and rolls with this. But I want to say a huge Thank you to John’s SISTER who introduced him to birds. Mike, you’re the BEST, of course. Warm, accessible, funny and just plain delightful. The Safety Meetings are sublime! 😂
What I like about Mike is that he is so agreeable. He can meet a person who might disagree with him politically or anything else and make friends with them in minutes. He would make a great president.
Very good episode. I know a number of years ago when you were doing the first installment of Dirty Jobs your folks had requested to come along with us to look at the endangered Red -Cockaded Woodpecker. I was a certified tree climber and permitted endangered bird technician for the U.S. Forest Service in the Southern Region. We did not get to do that episode with you but I am glad that you found someone as passionate about birding and research as we were. Mike, continue the great work of finding passionate people who are more concerned about the overall good than they are about money. In this very self-serving world we need more unselfish folks to do the jobs that somebody has to do in order to maintain our way of life and to help preserve the wildlife. Thanks so much!
I like the way you wrapped up this episode, the "why" they do it. Thanks.
My dad got me into birds as a kid. Between huntin and fishin, I learned many from my surroundings. It is a joy that never depletes.
I am a songbird and raptor wildlife rehabber with Virginia, so I was very excited to see this episode! I was actually down at NCU in January for my wildlife training classes I needed to keep my permit, but did not know about this museum. I would love more information on how to break into this field of work, since as a rehabber, we do not get paid for the work we do. We do it all out of the kindness of our hearts and for the animals...but any sort of paid work would be nice as well! Would anyone know more about this?
seeing the kids pumped about that donated bird John must be proud beyond measure

I just got done with Field Station this summer for my Forestry degree and we did mist netting during wildlife week! It was so fun nd I loved getting to interact with all the birds we caught. We got four cardinals, two indigo buntings, aand a white-eyed vireo. Amazing little creatures.

Very cool episode. You know These kids excuse me young adults left pumped up!!
What an inspirational guy
I got nothing but respect for John and these kids! This is amazing!
I remember going to this part of the museum as a kid I absolutly loved it so intriguing.
to see the eyes light up in our youth, great job sir🤓🤓🤓🤓
Just wonderful.
My Dad and I years ago used to go to the New York Zoological Park or the Bronx Zoo. One of the highlights was always going to the World of Birds.
Just subscribed. Can’t wait for my hubby to watch this segment. He’s a bird nerd! ❣️
Dude I wish people watched you miss than they watched tiktok. You're doing God's work
I love all of your shows and your sense of humor. Thank you.❣️
The safety meeting had me howling.
Great show. Thank you Mike.
Hey Mikey! I really liked this informative video and everyone that's "For the birds", too. Kudos for all that your crew, you and the "Bird Nerds" do. Cheers, Mate.
Some of the best produced videos Mr Dirty Bird
Good work, Mr. Mike Rowe, as always. 👍

He should have mentioned at 5:55 the birds skin is beet red because it is severely dehydrated from being in the net in the hot sun for too long. Animal abuse in the name of science..
Keep em coming Mike. I love this series.
love listening to mike take the piss out of the safety meetings
Mikes so cool. Respect.
Imagine doing something you love doing everyday.. and then you also get to meet Mike Rowe. What a day.
Bird nerds in action! Happy to he counted as one. That man is a real one
Love the bird collection. The Anniston Museum of Natural History in Anniston, Alabama has an awesome bird collection that was the beginning of a great museum collection of animals. I love that place and seeing this episode brings back lots of memories for me.
I banded birds in Jr high with one of my teachers. I thought I might be an ornithologist at that point. That didn't happen, but I've always enjoyed science.
Keep it coming Mr. Rowe!
This is awesome! Thanks!
Mike you rock! Peace
thanks for the informative adventure stay safe looking forward to more
Loved the safety meeting.
Mr Mike Rowe been my favorite show presenter for a while now!!! Genuine Guy... i think and hope!!!! hehehe
Thanks Mike!
Watching this brought back memories of one of my now deceased Friends ! William " Bill " Cochran aka. Wally Whom devoted much of his life to the study of Birds ! He is responsible for engineering very likely the first micro transmitters to be attached to the backs of Birds, to ascertain things such as Wing beats, Heart beats, and a system to track migrating birds as well ! Some may know of him, from these very works ! Too, he was responsible for aiding the U.S. Government in building a Satellite to compete with Russia's Sputnik program ! His many written article's on the subject of Birds can be found in Libraries around the World ! I was very fortunate that he considered me a Friend and colleague for many of our escapades ! GODSPEED Wally ! 🐦 R.I.P. William W. Cochran ❤️🥀❤️ 🐦

Must say from an academic perspective coming from someone who studied wildlife that my experience taking a ornithology taxonomy class is 10x more put together than the mammology counterpart. Sadly there seems to be a bit of a turf war involving the representation of classes of Animalia, with departments often favoring mammologists over ornithologists/herpetologists and it is honestly disguising. And many academic institutions can’t do a fraction of what this guy is doing but consider it the same. If you were to ask the people what’s the goal of the taxonomy, they would struggle to answer it the way as johns response of “ preserve records for people to study”
I can just see the ornithologist’s mom calling him, “Norman!” 😏 🔪

Didn’t even see the video. Saw Mike Rowe’ name and face and just subscribed. I loved the Dirty Jobs show
Thank God for them safety meetings.
Mike and his team just take us everywhere - don't they - you have to admit that you could not guess the next adventure
I can't believe you have so dew subscribers. I shall add myself to those numbers.
Good ol' Mike "Safety Third" Rowe, professional actor.
I saw.The Byrds open for the Grateful Dead!
I Guess I'm a bird nerd!😂😂
You should do an episode about the job of a safety supervisor. I'm sure the massive amount of red tape could get really dangerous.
OK, I know I'm a bird nerd when I can't stop smiling when I say, "It's a curlew!!" before they identify it in the video.
Speaking of birds. A trip to The Iowa Parrot Rescue in Letts, Iowa. My daughter has 2 now and would like another. Her husband disagrees.
I want to see Mike Rowe Jet Boat Racing!

Finally the place to ask this question. Is handling a wild bird dangerous in any way aside from the bird attacking? Disease? Contagious viruses or anything like that?
@callak_9974

Most diseases don't cross species, so should be ok from that. But you could possibly pass it on to another bird if you don't clean up.

Yes! Another one from my childhood hero! I have had a lawn business for ten years now. Mike was a HUGE influence on me making me feel like I didn’t need college and now I have three trailers three crews ton of stuff to do the yards and costumer relationships for years now. I love my job and I’m super happy mike made me feel like I could do this profession and still be successful. Edit:mike said these jobs are the backbone of our nation and truly keep us going. Also why I love his show!
I love science.
