Superb Podcast

I appreciate that Ivan Phillipsen covers all things ornithological. He doesn’t get sidetracked and wander out into the weeds. He does a great job whether covering a specific bird or an entire species. If you want to improve your birding skills and your overall knowledge this is the best podcast out there. Numero Uno birding podcast.

Love the Science of Birds!

I think the episode where Ivan described his trip to Mongolia and the landscape of the steppe cured a migraine I had while listening.
