This is the podcast equivalent of the tv show ‘Gone Fishing’- except of course, with birds. And the inestimable Sean Bean. He has the most soothing voice and to hear him talking about bird watching and nature is extremely comforting. I do enjoy bird watching in my fairly wild part of the world and I’m now a convert to this podcast. Can’t wait for the next episode- whoever came up with the idea of having Sean Bean do this podcast deserves a bonus!
Would love for more seasons to come, but regardless it’s always great listening to informative nature podcasts.
A great podcast with a variety of interesting guests, all with a clear love of birding. A range of musical guests from different genres and Mya-Rose’s gentle musings holding everything together make this a must-listen. I’m looking forward to Season 2…
Best Podcast that I’ve ever listened to.
I really enjoy this podcast. If there’s going to be another series or more episodes, it would be great to hear from Edwin Collins, singer with 80s band Orange Juice who I know has a real interest in birds
