AI6YR Ben@AlaskaWx @transitionalaspect @ScoterD Oooh, this is neat. I need to look up the local names for our birds here (we're in Chumash country).

yuxnuts hummingbird
from Chumash dictionary (I donʼt know how to sound them out)

@ScoterD @AlaskaWx @transitionalaspect Thanks! I need to ask if anyone has recorded pronunciation of these (coincidentally, I actually teach at that school in a different department).
14mission@ai6yr @ScoterD @AlaskaWx @transitionalaspect I didn't know about this project. I was in the Ling Dept at UCSB and knew people working on Chumash.
@14mission @ScoterD @AlaskaWx @transitionalaspect Looks like this is a new(er) thing
