Ray Brown's Talkin' Birds is a call-in show of entertaining conversation about wild birds -- attracting them to your back yard, identifying them, feeding them, and learning more about them along the way. Every week, we have contests for prizes like bird feeders and other great bird-related stuff, along with expert guests. So, whether you're an experienced birder, or you're new to birding, listen in, and be part of the show by calling in with a question, sharing some information or observations, or trying for one of our prizes. It's birdwatching--in the backyard and beyond.

Keepin’ it BIRDY!
It’s always so much fun listening to Talkin’ Birds!! There’s a cool formula to the show but one never knows what’s coming next! Great for birders of all ages and abilities to enjoy. Check it out! Jo in Ca
I absolutely LOVE this Podcast.
Talkin Birds is my absolute favorite Podcast. I never miss an episode. Both informative and humorous. I recommend this PodCast to everyone. I cannot wait for each new Podcast. I have learned so much from this show. The only reason I am giving this Podcast 5 stars is because you can’t give 6.
