Talkin’ Birds is proudly supported by our sponsors and our listeners. Help us continue to spread the word about birds and conservation by joining our Patreon and get bonus behind-the-scenes perks!

Talkin' Birds is broadcast live from Marshfield, Massachusetts. This is the land of the Massa-adchu-es-et people and the Wôpanâak Nation, whose lives and livelihoods were devastated by the arrival of European colonizers, yet they are still here. We acknowledge and pay respects to their elders past, present, and future.
