Just a little preview of what I'm calling season three! Spring is just around the corner and before we know it the birds will be back singing their hearts out. Now is a perfect time to refresh our memories on what our feathered friends sound like. It's hard to believe this is my third year of making a podcast. I still learn something new every episode, both about how to make a podcast and how to identify birds by sound. This is just a little episode I put together to reintroduce this podcast and myself. New episodes will be coming out soon so stay tuned. I would love to hear your comments, questions, suggestions, or send them to [email protected] also check out the podcast website here. Happy birding and thanks for listening.
