  • My favorite podcast!

    Appreciate having a podcast that celebrates all things nature in NE Wis. Because his show is about local plants, animals, insects, weather, birds, etc. - it’s so much more relevant than a national show. Thanks, Rob! ♥️

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

December 5, 2025 | Birds of Winter, Holiday Houseplants, Varied Thrush
Q: What unique bird call sounds like a digital tone or beep?
Rob suggests it could be a spring peeper frog, as they produce a sound similar to a digital beep, or possibly a blue jay's tea kettle call or even a wood thrush's metallic song.
November 28, 2025 | Snowy Owls, Photography, Migration
Q: Why are the birds eating so much before the snow?
They sense the pressure lowering, indicating a storm, which triggers them to eat more in preparation for the snowfall.
November 28, 2025 | Snowy Owls, Photography, Migration
Q: What kind of camera do you use when you do all that beautiful photography?
I use a variety of cameras depending on what I'm photographing, but I really prefer point and shoot cameras for their convenience.
November 14, 2025 | Evening Grosbeak, Iris Blooms!
Q: What do you think about cutting hostas down to about six or seven inches?
If you want to clean up now, you can, and you can chop them back. But it's not necessary.
November 14, 2025 | Evening Grosbeak, Iris Blooms!
Q: How do I winterize those? Do I cut them back right to the ground, or don't cut them back?
You don't have to cut them back until spring. It's fine if you just leave them.
