  • Birding goodness!

    I listen to a bunch of birding podcast, but this one by Hannah & Erik, I listen to a lot. The thing I like the most is them narrating their birding adventures, which allows me to learn bird behaviors, which birds in which places & the environment they live in. This helps me plan future visits to these amazing wild places. Thank you so much for sharing your birding stories!

  • TY!

    So glad to have found your podcast! I have listened to them all on my walks or during drives - especially when driving to birding spots near my home in Massachusetts. I was inspired to visit the Tucson AZ area after listening to your episodes on it. Went to all the places you mentioned and had the time of my life chasing lifers! Now I want to go to Costa Rica! Thank you for all of your suggestions and energy. I look forward to each episode now!
