Dispatches on wildlife, wild places, and the human condition brought to you by a field biologist and boyish explorer.
The Chasing Nature podcast returns with birdsong and a recitation of my short essay titled “Sunlight and Warfare.” But this episode mostly comes by way of writer and birder Nathaniel Bowler, who interviewed me for his podcast Ten Birding Questions.
Nate and I wander in conversation to cover, among other topics, my birding origin story, birds in decline, why I write, the virtues of Vermont, field guides and gadgets, birdwatching’s carbon problem, why I’m a reluctant participant in holiday bird counts, and the fireworks of a Ruby-crowned Kinglet.
