In this special start-of-the-month episode of That Quirky Bird Girl, I’m embracing all of me — my queerness, my autism, and my deep love for birds — and kicking off a month of celebration, softness, and honesty.

This one’s personal. I talk about what it’s taken to get here — to feel safe enough to say out loud that I’m queer, that I’m autistic, and that I deserve to feel whole without tucking parts of myself away. Birds, as always, are my companions on this journey, and in this episode I highlight some of the most brilliantly queer birds I’ll be celebrating this month — starting with barn swallows and a look at sexual dimorphism through a queer lens.

If you’ve ever felt like you had to choose between parts of yourself… this episode is for you. You deserve to be every version of you. All at once.
