Bird Bites



Bird Bites is my social media channel dedicated to the wonderful world of birds.

There is a youtube channel, facebook page, instagram account and the blog posts here.

I write regular articles in my local newspaper and am interviewed frequently on TV and the radio about bird and conservation related issues. Most of these posts are from the newspaper articles with the occasional extra ones, like this one on Bird Calls of the Toowoomba Region. The youtube channel and facebook page are very active if you’d like to follow them there.

I used to host this all separately on another blog site birdbites.com.au but I have decided to place them all here now. I hope you enjoy!
