In the D.C. region, conversations often start with, 鈥淲hat do you do?鈥� 海角社区app鈥檚 new series 鈥�Working Capital鈥� profiles the people doing the work that makes the D.C. region unique.
In Tuesday’s “Working Capital” episode of 鈥淢att About Town,鈥� 海角社区app’s Matt Kaufax went to the Smithsonian National Zoo to pose as a bird caretaker for a morning.
You might remember a previous episode of “Matt About Town,” where we met Parker, the shy flamingo who has taken to her human keepers, even attending zoo staff meetings, as she adjusts to life in the flock.
Through that story, Matt met Eric Slovak, assistant curator of all birds, not just flamingos, at the zoo.
His job is definitely one of the most interesting (and important) in the area!
