We’ll also hear from bestselling author Amy Tan about The Backyard Bird Chronicles and the year she spent observing, drawing and keeping a journal of the birds in her garden transformed the way she understood survival, habitat and our relationship with the natural world. Plus, wildlife writer and communicator Lucy McRobert from The Sound Approach explores the overlooked voices of female birds and the gender gap in birdsong, nature beatboxer and composer Jason Singh reveals why the blackbird and song thrush are among his favourite birds, and Dr Mya-Rose Craig returns to answer your questions about the sounds of summer and the remarkable lives of swifts. Produced by Hana Walker-Brown. The Executive Producer is Jane Gerber.
