Episode 19: Bird Language & Mindful Birding with Dan Gardoqui

[email protected]

Have you ever wondered how you can become even more attuned to the birds around you? 

 In this episode of the Mindful Birding Podcast, Holly and Holly have a conversation with Dan Gardoqui, a well known specialist in bird language, and nature-based consultant & coach, award winning educator and naturalist. 

You’ll get to hear some tips and input on deepening our connections to the natural world, "talking to birds", thinking about our attention and energy, curiosity as a superpower, and practicing gratitude.  

We also share a segment from the book What the Robin Knows, by Jon Young, for which Dan served as science and audio editor.

In the Joy of Birdsong segment, you’ll be treated to Dan’s incredible mimicry of some common North American birds.
