An unusual turn of events - all team members are present and we’ve remembered to record the episode. Impressive. Listen again to Season 4 - Episode 6 here:
Birder’s Twitter remains the premier weekly birding broadcast. For birders by birders.
We want the listeners to jump in and improve our overall performance. All the best birders listen - we want to hear your chat. So feel free to hop on next week. We're having a festive special - which will be just like any other epiosde, except at Christmas.
Be sure to catch last week’s episode via the podcast:
Or if you're rolling on Apple - sniff here:
Leave a 5 star review and some witty comments on which ever platform you listen. Ideally both Spotify and Apple Podcasts. Plus grab your girl/ boyfriends phone and Mum's phone and do the same on there. As well as subscribing them.
