What a treat I have for you this episode! I had the opportunity to interview Steve Maslowski - a wildlife photographer who Brome has been working with for many, many years. It turns out that Steve’s father Karl was a pioneer in wildlife photography as well as an accomplished film-maker. Steve recently released a documentary which you can watch here - https://vimeo.com/668320599. It’s an absolutely fascinating look at a man who dedicated his entire life to educating others on the importance of our natural heritage. I hope you’ll have the chance to enjoy it - we did!
Dr. Bird answers a question about a Bald Eagle ‘Hanging out’ next to a family of Golden Eagles somewhere along the Colorado river. 
We’ve been having so much fun with our garden this year - if you remember, early in the season I mentioned I’d planted some Marigolds to try and help my tomatoes. Well we also planted A LOT of Nasturtiums all over the place and they are doing really well. On top of being a beautiful addition to the garden, they are entirely edible and help keep some pests away from the plants!
Bird Alphabet is P this week, and our special guest is the Purple Finch.
