Love the episode on Mindful Birding. And I love my local Wild Birds Unlimited store. The owners always give great bird advice. Their store is a healing sanctuary in a bland strip mall. We need more birds and we need more people talking about birds. This is the place to relax and learn...Read full review »

This podcast can be enjoyable and informative but their frequent chuckling at darn-near EVERYthing they say prevents that. Also, as someone else noted, “species” is both singular and plural when referring to biology. “Specie” refers to coined money.

Fun to listen to and informative. Working on my landscaping to put in bird natural plants like winterberry and various other native plants. Already more activity in our yard. Superb job I love all the information in this podcast. I have maybe 10 different books and multiple apps on birds and...Read full review »

Always guaranteed to make me smile and temporarily forget my worries. I am so thankful to have found this podcast.

I love this show and catch up on episodes when I miss them. But, I have a pet peeve as a biology instructor, the word “species” is both plural and singular. Stop using the word “specie” it’s like nails on a chalk board. Otherwise, fabulous show!

I so enjoy your podcast. I’m usually cooking when I’m listening to you both. I love your sense of humor and your knowledge of God’s amazing birds.

I so miss the bi-weekly episodes, but I’ll take what I can get. Have been listening from the get-go and have learned so much from Brian and John. It’s corny and geeky, but pure bird nerd delight. And I got my backyard habitat certified by the NWF because of their encouragement. Woo hoo!

Awesome information learn something knew every time. You guys should do an episode of how we can help keep our birds warm and healthy during the winter. Like putting up roosting boxes and keeping heaters in bird baths.

Such great, approachable information for any level of birding. Also, the laugh of these two makes me laugh along too!
