COVER STORY: A migration odyssey – Tagging whimbrel shorebirds
Whimbrel are dramatically declining in numbers due to the pressures of climate change encroaching upon the birds’ habitats and migratory routes. So, it was a shock when ornithologists discovered that 20,000 eastern whimbrel – half of the estimated population – stopped to roost on South Carolina’s tiny Deveaux Bank during their annual migration. Correspondent Martha Teichner joins experts as they attempt to capture and tag some of these birds, to learn more about them in order to best help them survive.

Correspondent Rita Braver visits New York’s Museum of Modern Art, where 250 of Cezanne’s watercolors and drawings on paper are featured in a landmark exhibition, “Cézanne Drawing.”

STAGE: The road to the hit Broadway musical “Wicked”
Gregory Maguire’s 1995 novel “Wicked” sought to give a backstory to one of the most haunting figures from L. Frank Baum’s “Wizard of Oz”: The Wicked Witch of the West.

Correspondent Tracy Smith talks with Maguire and composer and lyricist Stephen Schwartz, and with the original Glinda and Elphaba, Kristin Chenoweth and Idina Menzel, about a show that has become a beacon for anyone who doesn’t fit a conventional mold.

9/11: From rescues to rescuers – Training search dogs
It takes a special kind of dog to become an expert in the art of finding people trapped in rubble. That’s why Wilma Melville founded the National Disaster Search Dog Foundation, which trains both firefighters and canines – typically, dogs that are rescues themselves – to work at the sites of natural disasters, building collapses and terror attacks, such as Ground Zero in New York City following 9/11. Correspondent Luke Burbank talks with Melville about her mission.
