Description
Welcome to the first episode of Calling All Birds! The podcast where we learn the art of birding-by-ear together through in-depth discussion, memorable mnemonics, and relatable personal anecdotes. In this episode we give a little background about ourselves and our plan that Season 1 will cover birds of the Pacific Northwest, and then we feature a very common bird to the region -- the Dark-eyed Junco. We explain the difference between a trill song and a warble, and we have an in-depth discussion of three of the Dark-eyed Junco's often heard songs and calls. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/calling-all-birds/message
