Bioacoustics with David Mann, PhD | The Beet
samedi 31 août 2024 • Duration 44:54
Why do animals make sounds, and what kinds of sounds do they make? David Mann, PhD has created Haikubox in conjunction with his colleagues at Loggerhead Instruments to study just that! In this full episode of the Beet Podcast, hear him in conversation with Jacques about animal sounds, and gardening with birds.

What Kinds of Birds Can I Attract to My Yard
Episode 5
vendredi 30 août 2024 • Duration 10:28
Your locale is the primary determiner of the kinds of birds you can attract to the garden. However, the population of birds changes from season to season. Sure, you’ll have resident birds, but you’ll also have seasonal and migrating birds. After you invite them in, take some time to listen and observe their behavior. You may get a better sense of the larger cycles birds are a part of.
