  • Host Suzy speaks with Sandra Morocho (Birdwatchers of Quijos Valley, Ecuador) and Michaela Leeb (Swarovski-Optik).

    Sandra lives in the cloud forest on the eastern slopes of the Andes in Ecuador. In 2014 she won a pair of binoculars in the Digiscoper of the Year competition run by Swarovski-Optik.

    Using the binoculars stoked Sandra’s enthusiasm for sharing views of the local birds with her friends. From there, Sandra’s engagement with the wider community led to an initiative with local leaders to promote eco-tourism alongside conservation efforts in the cloud forest in the Quijos Valley.

    Michaela tells us of the part Swarovski-Optik plays in supporting conservation efforts around the world.

    We also hear how Sandra and Michaela would spend a fantasy birding day.

  • Alan Davis and Ruth Miller are passionate birders.

    In 2008 they gave up their jobs and sold everything to embark on an epic year-long quest to see and hear as many bird species as possible. After many adventures, on a journey taking them around the world, their final total was an amazing 4341 species, achieving a world record for the most species seen in one year.

    They wrote about their adventures in their book The Biggest Twitch.

    They now run a bird-watching tour company providing guided tours (with cake) in their home country of Wales and worldwide.

    Ruth and Alan talk about sharing their love of birds with others, and how each would spend a fantasy birding day.

  • Dick and Andrew Woods, who operate the family business behind Finches Friend bird feeders, prioritise the health of garden birds in the design of their products.

    A passionate designer, Dick set out to revolutionise bird feeding practices by confronting the disease and contamination risks that exist wherever we feed our garden birds.

    Not only do their feeders separate the food from contact with birds feet, they also encourage us to maintain good feeder hygiene by providing easy clean solutions through their innovative feeder design.

  • Bridget Butler, also known as the Bird Diva, did not originally have a passion for birds.
    But seeing an Indigo Bunting one morning sparked her birding interest.

    Finding support and encouragement in the Vermont birding community Bridget developed an interest in slow birding.

    Bridget encourages the observation of birds as a holistic, mindful practice rather than a race to spot the most species.

    She now teaches the practice of slow birding, encouraging others to embrace a slower, more contemplative approach.
