Description
There is a new birder/birdwatching podcast on the scene, it's produced in Melbourne as well, and I am really excited that it's another avenue for people to discover the joy of getting to know birds, and to become a certified Bird Nerd! I spoke with the host and producer of the show, Kirsty Costa, recently, and I am pleased to be able to introduce Kirsty to you in this bonus episode. will let Kirsty's words describe her show, and her; "Birdwatching is for everyone. Anyone of any age can go birdwatching, no matter where they live. Weekend Birder is a podcast that shares the knowledge and skills of the Aussie birdwatching community. Discover how to identify birds, fun facts, where to go birdwatching and how to use equipment. Episodes are short so that you can get out there and try out your new skills and knowledge." "Kirsty Costa is a teacher, science communicator and conservationist. During the week, Kirsty leads education for a science-based conservation organisation. On the weekends, you will find her hanging out in nature with her friends and family. After a lifetime of loving wild birds, Kirsty started calling herself a “birder” in 2020. As part of her commitment to education and science, she interviews other birders so that everyone can enjoy birdwatching together."
