Life Through Feathers: The Garden Bird Podcast

Lifethroughfeathers

Sciences

Fréquence : 1 épisode/28j. Total Éps: 10

Life Through Feathers is a relaxed family podcast about British garden birds, birdwatching, and nature stories, recorded across three generations. Each month, host Will explores birds in the news, birds visiting a South Yorkshire garden, and wherever else birds decide to appear, often in unexpected places. Not an expert, just an enthusiastic (and sometimes confused) birdwatcher, Will is often joined by family and friends, all sharing a simple curiosity about the birds around us.

Costa Rica - A Special Bonus Episode

Épisode 9

vendredi 11 septembre 2026 • Durée 25:54

This month we have a little something extra for you - an additional episode of Lifethroughfeathers where we stray from our usual garden bird podcast and head much further afield!

Earlier this summer, the four of us headed to Costa Rica for a family holiday and, as you might expect, birds played a pretty big part in the adventure.

In this special bonus episode, we’ve gathered around the kitchen table to talk about some of the birds we saw, the places we visited and the moments that really stood out to us. We chat about some of our favourites, including the Toucan, Scarlet Macaw and Rufous-tailed Hummingbird, as well as some of the many other birds we encountered along the way.

We've also included some of the actual bird sounds recorded during our trip, so you can hear a little of the Costa Rican soundtrack for yourself.

And, of course, there were a few birds that got away! We talk about the ones we saw brilliantly, the ones we only caught aglimpse of, and the Toucan that somehow managed to avoid giving us the perfect view we were hoping for.

Daniel took photographs of many of the birds we mention, and you can see them over on our Instagram page: @lifethroughfeathers

So, settle back and join us as we swap our Sheffield garden for the birds of Costa Rica.

We hope you enjoy the journey!

A Magpie in the Garden

Épisode 8

mercredi 26 août 2026 • Durée 25:23

This month on Life Through Feathers, Daniel joins me for a Top 10 all about one of the most familiar, and perhaps most divisive, birds in our gardens: the magpie.

We explore some of the fascinating facts behind this intelligent and unmistakable bird, from its familiar rattling call to its place in folklore and the way it has become such a regular visitor to our own garden.

We then continue our three-part series on making our gardens more wildlife friendly. This month, we’re building a pond, but not quite in the way you might expect! We take you through how we turned an old tyre into a wildlife pond, and talk about how even a small pond can make a difference to the wildlife visiting our garden.

Finally, in Final Flutter, I’m joined by my father-in-law Les. When he took part in the RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch earlier this year, his garden was so quiet that he recorded just two wood pigeons. But things have changed, and he’s now seeing many more birds visiting his garden.

So, whether you like magpies, fancy building your own wildlife pond, or simply enjoy watching the birds that visit your garden, we hope you’ll join us for another relaxed stroll through the wonderful world of garden birds.

A Nuthatch in Our Garden

Épisode 7

mercredi 29 juillet 2026 • Durée 23:51

This month on Life Through Feathers, we're celebrating one of Britain's most charismatic woodland birds, the nuthatch. Clare joins me as we count down our Top 10 fascinating facts, from its incredible climbing ability to its unmistakable call and its unique habit of plastering mud around nest holes.

We're also beginning the first part of a new three-part series on making our gardens more wildlife friendly. Together, Clare and I explore some simple changes that can make a real difference for the birds and other wildlife that share our outdoor spaces.

Finally, in Final Flutter, Dad returns as we head to South Wales to discover the story behind Swansea City AFC and the swan that has become such an important symbol of the club.

Whether you're a lifelong birdwatcher or simply enjoy the wildlife outside your window, we hope you'll join us for another relaxed stroll through the wonderful world of garden birds.

A Wood Pigeon in our Garden

Épisode 6

mercredi 24 juin 2026 • Durée 29:34

The gentle cooing of the Wood Pigeon is one of the defining sounds of a British garden, yet it's a bird many of us barely notice. In this episode of Life Through Feathers, we're slowing down to appreciate this familiar visitor. You'll hear recordings from our own garden, alongside the calls of an unusually vocal Chaffinch that seemed determined to steal the show!

We'll be exploring some fascinating facts about the Wood Pigeon, discussing our vocal Chaffinch and, in our Final Flutter segment, my friend Ben joins me as we take a look at the Liver Bird and its special connection with Liverpool FC.

Together, these everyday garden sounds remind us that even the most familiar birds have remarkable stories to tell if we take the time to listen. Put the kettle on, settle into your favourite chair, and spend a little time with us in the garden.

A Dunnock in the Garden

Épisode 5

mercredi 27 mai 2026 • Durée 25:30

In this month’s episode of Life Through Feathers, James and I take a closer look at one of Britain’s most overlooked garden birds, the Dunnock. Quiet, shy and often mistaken for a sparrow, this little bird turns out to have a surprisingly fascinating life.

Together we count down our Top 10 Dunnock facts, before I explore the hidden world of garden birds, and finish with a chat with dad about the old word “Throstle” and its connection to West Bromwich Albion.

I hope this episode encourages us all to slow down and appreciate the birds we see every day outside our own windows.

A Blue Tit in the Garden

Saison 1 · Épisode 4

mercredi 29 avril 2026 • Durée 26:09

Spring is in full swing, and this episode of Life Through Feathers is packed with birdsong, family chat, and a few unexpected connections.

We begin with the cheerful sounds of the blue tit, one of the UK’s most recognisable and charismatic garden birds. I’m joined by Clare as we count down our top 10 fascinating facts about these tiny acrobats - from their colourful plumage to their cheerful chatter.

Next, I sit down with Daniel and James to discuss new guidance from the RSPB advising people not to put out seeds and peanuts between May and October. We explore what this means for garden bird lovers, why the advice has beenintroduced, and whether it might change our own feeding habits.

Finally, in this month’s Final Flutter, my dad joins me for a look at football and birds as we explore Tottenham Hotspur andtheir iconic cockerel emblem. Where did it come from, and what’s the story behind one of football’s most distinctive symbols?

Whether you’re here for birds, family conversations, or a bit of sporting history, there’s something for everyone in this episode.

No Wren in our Garden

mercredi 25 mars 2026 • Durée 31:27

In this episode of Life Through Feathers we turn our attention to the wren, though for the first time, there’s no wren in our garden.

Joined by my dad, we share a Top 10 full of memories (including the wren on the old British farthing). Then, with Clare and Daniel, we explore bird photography and the rise of AI images - what it means for trust, conservation, and capturing real moments.

The episode closes with Final Flutter, where birds and football collide. James and I look at Newcastle United and their famous magpie connection.

A Blackbird in the Garden

Épisode 2

mercredi 25 février 2026 • Durée 31:55

In this episode of Life Through Feathers, we slow things right down and spend some time with one of Britain’s most familiar birds. It opens with the sound of a blackbird singing in our own garden, before easing into reflections and stories inspired by this everyday companion.

We revisit the RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch, hear what that hour uncovered for friends and family, and along the way share a top ten of surprising blackbird facts, grounded firmly in what we see and hear just outside our back door.

The episode closes with Final Flutter, where birds, football and family history collide - from Norwich City and the Canaries to coal mines, childhood, and the birds that once kept miners safe.

A gentle, reflective episode about noticing what’s been there all along.

A Robin in the Garden

Épisode 1

mercredi 28 janvier 2026 • Durée 24:19

In the first episode of Life Through Feathers, we begin close to home.

Together as a family, we take part in the RSPB’s Big Garden Birdwatch, pausing to notice who’s sharing our garden with us. We spend time with one of Britain’s most familiar birds, the robin, exploring what makes it so distinctive, and why it so often catches our attention.

And in our Final Flutter, my dad and I reflect on The Owls, memory, and what birds can quietly carry for us through a lifetime.

Full episodes begin in late January 2026.
