Guillaume Doerig
Do you love birds? Is birding your passion? Then this podcast is for you! Birders come together to discuss the joy of birding, and many other aspects of this rapidly growing activity.
This time on The Birding Today Podcast, I am joined by Mona Loofs-Samorzewski to go in-depth on joy of birding, how to define a birder, the seasonality of birds, differences in northern vs. southern hemisphere birding, and what drives us to be birders in evolutionary terms. We also discuss the 'collecting gene', eBird reviewing, and birding with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Other topics in this episode include group vs. solo birding, the environmental impact of birding, what makes a good birder, and listing.

In this episode, I am joined by Ramit Singal to delve into the depths of audio recording! We discuss the sounds birds make (both vocal and non-vocal), how recording bird sounds can shed light on many aspects of birds' lives, and how to start recording bird sounds as a beginner. We also discuss birds' different 'dialects', using sound to discern between similar-looking species, and the best habitat types to record bird sounds in. Additionally, we touch on the differences between birding in Australian and India, the playfulness of birds, pelagics and much more!

In this week's episode, Nick Leseberg joins me on the show to discuss Australia's rarest species of birds! Specifically, we talk about the mythical Night Parrot and its history, ecology, and current status, as well as Nick's PhD and his active role in the Night Parrot's conservation. We also touch on the concept of rarity (why are some species rare and others aren't?), nurturing the passion for birds in the next generation, and how to manage the social dynamics of guiding a group. Of course, we also address the show's central questions like what makes a good birder, what brings joy in birding, and eBird. Thank you for your time, Nick!
