    I don’t even like birds
    This podcast is WAY BETTER than it needs to be.

    Pls delete the ads
    Dwight is amazing and a delight. The ads drive me crazy.😵‍💫

    The Podcast for Bird Lovers
    This is an absolute gem of a podcast for bird lovers. History, biology, etymology, music, poetry - all of it is here. I only wish each episode were longer. Fantastic and worth a listen everyday.
  • Tunadoctor
    Excellent Information - Short but sweet
    A pleasant informative short story, all non-fiction. Verbal imagery is only surpassed by the sounds of the subject species. I wish I could use this as my morning alarm. Awaken indoors with the sounds of birds and a brief, but substantially informative few minutes. Please continue.

    Omg you need to make even more!! Lol. This is the best bird cast I’ve heard yet. Keep up the good work!!
  • Crosticslover
    Interesting but uneven
    The sound modulation is very uneven. One session is low, the next is louder and ad very loud. Makes for tough listening. Also would love to hear more birdsong.

    A Birders Delight
    This is the dearest podcast! As a birder I always enjoy Dwight’s folksy delivery and descriptions of our feathered friends. He takes me on a birding journey. Treat yourself to this delightful podcast

    Perfect
    This is such a good podcast, I hope it will continue. The creator has a nice voice and an excellent intuition for just the right details to impart to be uplifting and inspire further thought and investigation.

    Wish it was longer!
    Live this podcast for a quick bird fix… but I wish it were a few minutes longer and as a bird song or call at the end that e would have to guess for the next podcast. :) Thank you for this - love it!
  • Podcast_Junky
    Very enjoyable to listen
    The reader has an excellent voice. And always very informative. Wish there were a lot more episodes.
  • donoveh
    Delightful!
    This show is a perfect escape. The descriptions are beautiful and detailed enough that you can easily visualize the birds being discussed. I always learn something new and end the show feeling as if I just went on a short birding walk 😊
  • meatpaws6
    Bird sounds too loud
    The bird sounds are way too loud compared to the speaking voice. Other than that it’s great.
  • Bran L K

    If you love birds, you’ll love it!

    Excellent podcast with a charming host. Always, always makes me smile and reflect on his subject matter. Thank you so much Dwight! Such a pleasure to listen to you.

    Like a breath of fresh air
    This is a short, pleasant podcast with some lovely bird sounds and fascinating commentary on the bird of the day. It is a great thing to listen to on my morning commute.
  • Bird Notes Listener
    Absolutely wonderful
    A wonderful podcast. I am always looking forward to the next. Haven't seen a new one since beginning of the year. Come back!

    Part of my Sunday morning
    Bird Notes has become part of my Sunday morning, relaxing with a good cup of coffee. It is interesting and well presented. The presentations are timely for the season and the birds that we have in the lower Chesapeake Bay area, be they migrating through, an occasional visitor or spending the season. It is always a delight to hear about a bird that I am not familiar with, or to get new insight on one that I know fairly well. A good reason to have the clock radio set to come on so I don't miss the 8:30 am broadcast on Sunday morning.
