Birds are extremely awesome. But birding can be intimidating and difficult. Always Be Birdin' aims to change the narrative of birding. How we bird, where we bird and who is birding. Join me as I go out into the field with BIPOC birding experts, novice baby birders like myself and nature enthusiasts to do some chaotic, goofy birding while dropping a knowledge bomb or two to show that no matter what, you can Always Be Birdin'.

Today I sit down with Raquel Velez, founder and CEO of Alpine Parrot, a company who's mission is to celebrate larger bodies in the outdoors. This celebration is done specifically through providing hiking pants that are comfortable and useful for bodies that aren't represented or thought about in the outdoor apparel world. Raquel and I dig into the falsity of the term obese, how health and fatness do not go together and how dangerous of an idea this can be for BIPOC folks in the outdoors. We also talk about the Kea, the worlds only alpine parrot and why it's the inspiration for the company's name. Join us and visit AlpineParrot.com to contribute to the now live Kickstarter campaign.
