What if birding isn’t really about birds at all? In this zany yet deeply insightful episode, Sharon Stiteler—aka Birdchick—talks about attention, wonder, backyard drama, and why noticing the world around you might be one of the sanest things you can do right now.
Funny, sharp, and gloriously unpretentious, Sharon brings birds down from the lofty branches and into real life: city balconies, neighborhood walks, pandemic survival, mental health, hawks, house sparrows, herons, native plants, and even the smell of birds. Yes, really.
This one is playful, surprising, and sneakily profound—a conversation about what we gain when we slow down, look up, and listen.
