Birding Podcasts

Fatbirder Desktop Studio

Two decades ago an email from BirdwatchRadio about their programmed intention to start creating Podcasts twice a month spurred me into creating this page…

…moreover, it also spurred me into investigating the possibility of the occasional Fatbirder podcast… from which Grumpy Old Birder podcasts followed. Those podcasts are still out there, but no more were produced because of my deteriorating hearing. A good hearing aid that links to my iPhone and computer gives me the means to start again… should I choose to, but being a hermit, I find writing easier than speaking fluently enough to podcast without a good editor.

Lucky for birders, there are some great podcasting birders out there. Below you will find listed any Birding Podcasts I know about and related topics… be sure and tell me if you know of more.
