Bird Brain is a podcast about bird characters from popular culture and their counterparts in the natural world. Expect ratings on the anthropomorphic interpretations, anecdotes, ornithologist guests and appearances from my Fairy Godson, Elliott, aged 10. Each episode will explore pressing questions like: What type of bird is Big Bird? Would pigeon post have been more appropriate than owl post? And, has there ever really been a vampire duck?

Bonus Beasts: Tim Appleton and Birdfair

Every 6th episode of the podcast will be dedicated to Bonus Beasts (in honour of the number of the beast!). Whether it’s interviews with humans who are doing incredible work in the conservation and nature spaces or just an excuse to take about beavers, these are the episodes where you’ll find additional content about how popular culture intersects with the natural world.

In this inaugural episode of Bonus Beasts I had the pleasure of interviewing Tim Appleton, founder of Global Birdfair, LIVE at Birdfair itself. Tim is the titan of the episode!

We discuss fundraising a whopping 42 million pounds, the significance of a “flagship species” and the (predictably dismal) British weather.
