Really enjoy all these NA podcasts and appreciate the efforts put in. Specially liked birding with Charley in Chiang Mai!
Huge fan of the show and listen to it every week. Birdwatching around the world is the biggest focus but lots of travel experiences, culture, nature beyond birds, is included. It keeps adding to my ever deepening wish list of natural history adventures. Gets me more motivated and inspired to get out there and see and hear the world’s nature.
The show often does a top 5 or top 10 list of things for various locations, and here's my top five on what I like most about the podcast:

A birder friend of mine recommended this podcast to me, and I’ve been absolutely hooked! I consider myself just a general nature and wildlife lover, including birds, and all of the episodes so far have been wonderful! It’s a great escape from my city commute and I look forward to listening to each episode.
If you have ever wanted to listen to stories and be inspired to explore more of our world’s natural history then this show is for you. Bird based but with enough content on other wildlife, habitats and cultural aspects to appeal to most keen adventurers.
A brilliant podcast for nature lovers, and the adventurous!
I don’t miss a week of naturally adventurous.
Highly recommended 👍
