Description

If you prefer nature to people, birdsong to screeching tyres and secretly want to crash the economy via mass workplace dropout due to a bird language contagion, you will go absolutely crackers for this convo.

Andrew Turbill aka. THE BIRD GUY is here to share his epic and somewhat perilous birding quests for 2025, from stalking Logrunners to sidestepping fascists and recording a full blown predator attack in the sky.

F****** fabulous listening for anyone under the spell of birds. 

Andrew’s 2025 to-do list

  1. find out where our local superb lyrebirds (well, at least 1 lyrebird anyway) nest and get an audio recording of the young bird begging or alarm calls
  2. get a decent photo of a logrunner
  3. build an elevated sit spot platform in the forest
  4. spend more time in the forest socialising with songbirds and less time doom-scrolling about the callous and cruel manifestations of psychopaths, narcissists and fascists
  5. record audio of a full-sequence aerial predator attack
  6. keep my bird baths full 365 days of the year
  7. devise a way to dissuade catbirds and fairy-wrens from mercilessly pummeling my windows at dawn throughout spring and summer
  8. find someone desperate enough to make some walking-around money to enter 30 years of my naturalist seasonal field observations into a data base or excel spreadsheet so i make some effing sense of them
  9. take on a bird language apprentice
  10. visit my mum more often
