Tommy Siegel and Billy Libby are two nature-loving musicians on a quest to write a song about *EVERY* bird species on earth (there are only 11,136 species, so it shouldn't be too hard). On each episode, they'll do a deep dive to learn about each species and then play the song for a bird expert, who will decide if the song is EXTREMELY ACCURATE…or not.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Yellow-rumped Warbler
Q: What inspired the musical direction for Yellow-Rumped Warbler, given its complexity among warblers?
The hosts explain they aimed for a vibe that reflects the warbler's ubiquity and the playful, pop-influenced energy of Bird Rock while staying true to the science and a catchy, repeatable motif.
Roseate Spoonbill
Q: How accurate is the lyric about the spoonbill's diet and feeding behavior?
The hosts discuss color causation by carotenoids from crustaceans and confirm the song's depiction aligns with known spoonbill foraging behavior.
Roseate Spoonbill
Q: What genre did you imagine for the Spoonbill song and why?
They brainstormed Latin/Caribbean influences to match neotropical distribution and the bird's habitat, leading to a textured, rhythm-forward track.
Roseate Spoonbill
Q: Why did you pick the Roseate Spoonbill out of the lineup?
The guest host explains spoonbills are unusual, quirky, and personally familiar, making them a natural choice for a standout, memorable piece.
