    An absolute pleasure to listen to the guests speaking about birds. The sound is clear and high quality I can hear the birds twittering happily which makes me feel happy too! Thank you.

  • Chatting with mates

    Wonderfully put together and hosted by Sean. His presenting style is so comforting. It’s like you are chatting with mates about a shared passion. The inputs from the contributors are the same. No airs and graces. Doesn’t matter who you are, where you come from, nature is a great leveller.

  • Wonderful Company.

    I’m long term unemployed and my little garden is a place I love to be, in all weathers. I’ve come to know the Birds who visit and have a number of feeders in prime viewing spots. So, this podcast was right up my street. Thank you

  • Soothing balm

    This is the podcast equivalent of the tv show ‘Gone Fishing’- except of course, with birds. And the inestimable Sean Bean. He has the most soothing voice and to hear him talking about bird watching and nature is extremely comforting. I do enjoy bird watching in my fairly wild part of the world and I’m now a convert to this podcast. Can’t wait for the next episode- whoever came up with the idea of having Sean Bean do this podcast deserves a bonus!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Puffing Chests & Building Nests
Q: I've seen two pigeons doing a weird dance on my balcony; is it too early for them to nest, and what are your thoughts on pigeons?
Pigeons show social and mating behaviors like bowing and puffing up chests as part of courtship, and nesting can occur more than once per year in favorable conditions. They're highly adaptable, and their nesting timing can be flexible with food supply and weather; so observation in early spring is common, but it may still be early for a full brood depending on conditions.
The Wild Patch
Q: Is there anything you should do to help them over winter against the cold?
Provide food and ensure water is not frozen over.
