You like splits and lumps? Thinking about the intricacies of global taxonomy? Oh boy, are you in for a treat! George and Alvaro sat down with Marshall Iliff and Frank Rheindt, two members of the AviList Core Team, to take a deep dive into what's just been released: AviList, the Global Avian Checklist! Learn how the process got started, what's happened in the years it's been in the making, and how decisions were made bird-by-bird. Plus, hear how the four existing global checklists—including IOC, eBird/Clements, and Birdlife—will align with Avilist (spoiler alert: it's a global merge!). We're exploring the importance of collaboration among various taxonomic committees, the challenges of aligning different naming conventions, and the significance of evidence in making taxonomic decisions.AviList has just officially launched, and you can learn all about it at avilist.org. Come for this special interview that takes an intricate look at the world's bird taxonomy…stay for the splits!Get more Life list by subscribing to our newsletter and joining our Patreon for bonus content.

When it comes to England's environment and our landscape, few people in the country are as important as Tony Juniper. Since 2019, he has been the chairman of Natural England, the public body for ensuring that the country's natural environment is protected and enhanced. Not a small job, as we are sure you'll agree.He is also a recognised authority on parrots. More on that later.• Listen to Country Life podcast on Apple Podcasts• Listen to Country Life podcast on Spotify• Listen to Country Life podcast on AudibleAs well as managing Natural England, Tony is a prolific public speaker and author. Om Saturday May 17th, 2025, he'll be at London's newest literary festival, Fleet Street Quarter Festival of Words, in conversation with former leader of the Green Party Natalie Bennett, to discuss their books Just Earth and Change Everything, respectively. Tickets are available here.We spoke to Tony about Just Earth, and it was enlightening to hear his words on how climate degradation is as much a social issue as it is an environmental one. So much has been said about the changing climate, that it was fascinating to talk to someone with so much experience in the sector, and someone who has witnessed so much decline in his own lifetime, as well as someone who has experience and success in putting things right. Experience that he has shared with a wide variety of people and organisations, from Friends of the Earth to The King himself — a man he refers to as 'one of the most influential environmentalists of all time'.We also talk about parrots. Tony worked at BirdLife international and is a formally trained zoologist and conservationist. His book, Spix's Macaw: The Race to Save the World's Rarest Bird is a classic; so much so that it was adapted in part to create the animated film Rio.It's a fascinating chat, and it was a real privilege to get the chance to speak to him.Episode creditsHost: James FisherGuest: Tony JuniperEditor and producer: Toby KeelMusic: JuliusH via Pixabay Hosted on Acast.

Each year some birds migrate thousands of kilometres. But there's evidence climate change is already affecting this seasonal survival strategy. 

Earlier this year experts from bird charities across Europe gathered in Scotland to share how they are working to save nature across the continent. Stephen is joined by Isobel Mercer to talk about how working together across national boundaries is more important than ever. We hear from people working all over Europe about the challenges they face. And there's time for some nature news including a close pass by a common sandpiper and a birding first for Isobel.LINKSFind out more about Birdlife's work here https://www.birdlife.org/europe-and-central-asia/More on bird flu here https://www.rspb.org.uk/birds-and-wildlife/advice/how-you-can-help-birds/disease-and-garden-wildlife/avian-influenza-updates/Spotted Flycatcher ID https://www.rspb.org.uk/birds-and-wildlife/wildlife-guides/bird-a-z/spotted-flycatcher/

This episode of Golden Grenades features Arjan Dwarshuis, a professional bird guide, writer, and motivational speaker, who also holds the current Guinness Book World Record for observing the largest number of bird species in a single year. In 2016, he launched his global “Big Year” and ultimately observed 6852 of the world's roughly 10,900 bird species, setting a record that stands to this day. His yearlong adventure raised nearly 50,000 Euros for the BirdLife's Preventing Extinctions Programme. Arjan also starred in the award-winning documentary Arjan's Big Year, and appears regularly on radio, television, and podcast programs in the Netherlands and beyond. On May 4th 2023, his book about this adventure will be published in English by Chelsea Green Publishing under the title ‘The (Big) Year That Flew By'.

How have 10 birds shaped the lives of humans?

Es wird stiller auf den Feldern und in den Gärten: Denn die Zahl der Vögel sinkt seit Jahren deutlich. Nun zeigt eine neue Studie, dass auch die Lichtverschmutzung markant zum Artenschwund beiträgt. Im «Tagesgespräch» erklärt Martin Schuck von Birdlife, wie wir den Vögeln helfen können. Eine neue Studie aus Deutschland zeigt, dass die Lichtverschmutzung ständig zunimmt und grössere Auswirkungen auf Vögel und Insekten hat als bisher vermutet. Zugvögel sind von beleuchteten Nachthimmeln besonders betroffen, weil sie angelockt und abgelenkt werden. Von Lichtern angelockt werden auch Milliarden von Insekten, die an den Lichtquellen ermüden und verenden. Dadurch fehlen sie den Vögeln als Nahrung. Aber nicht nur die hellen Nächte sind ein Problem für unsere Vögel, sondern auch die Veränderung der Landschaft: Hecken, Brachflächen und Feuchtgebiete verschwinden – und damit auch der Lebensraum für viele Vögel. So sind in den vergangenen 40 Jahren die Vögel im Agrarland um fast 60 Prozent zurückgegangen. Martin Schuck, der stellvertretende Geschäftsführer von Birdlife Schweiz, kämpft gegen den Rückgang der Vogelpopulationen. Im «Tagesgespräch» erklärt er, weshalb es den Vögeln so schlecht geht, dass die Politik zu wenig gegen das Vogelsterben unternimmt und was wir alle tun können, um den Vögeln zu helfen.

Lead report author Lucy Haskell explains BirdLife International's State of the World's Birds 2022 report (it comes out every 4 years), finding that nearly half of the world's bird species are in decline, painting the most concerning picture yet for the natural world,  But it also identifies all the many human-caused drivers of species loss and the critical solutions we desperately need to save nature if we can urgently garner the political will and financial commitment from decision-makers to implement these solutions at scale and pace. This depends on which politicians we elect into office in the next decade and if they make environmental protection, including climate change, a priority. We particularly discuss agricultural and fishing solutions and logging and deforestation solutions to protect bird species and their habitats and note how conservation efforts over the decades have helped reduce the number of birds that have gone extinct, so we know what works. We just need to make these solutions a political priority. This comprehensive report can be found at the website https://www.birdlife.org/  It's got such beautiful images and so many charts and maps and infographics to make it easy to stay engaged and recognize core findings and see how everything fits together. I think Kids can engage with the report too as they must be part of the solution.

Zimbabwe is home to six species of vultures, five of which are critically endangered and at risk of extinction. At Victoria Falls, researchers and wildlife rehabilitators are working to increase populations, and advocates in the cities of Bulawayo and Harare educate farmers and traditional healers on the importance of these birds to healthy ecosystems. Producer ish Mafundikwa takes us on a road trip around the country to explore the issues affecting these often misunderstood and maligned birds.Related Resources:BirdLife ZimbabweVulture Conservation - Victoria Falls Wildlife TrustSaving Africa's Vultures - BirdLife InternationalJudge the Vulture Ambassador - Victoria Falls Wildlife TrustThe Race to Save Africa's Vultures - BBC EarthVideo - Saving Africa's Vultures in 2020 - BirdLife InternationalConnect with BirdNote on Facebook, Instagram and TwitterSign up to receive BirdNote's weekly newsletterBirdNote is an independent nonprofit media production company.

There are so many misconceptions about birds. For instance, the phrase 'bird brain' was traditionally used to suggest someone was less than intelligent. But birds are a lot smarter than we've given them credit for. All you need to do is watch a covid in action and you'll see how clever birds can be (hint - in some ways, more clever than us humans!). In this episode, I chat with Melissa Howes-Whitecross, the host of Conservation Conversations and the Landscape Conservation Program Manager of BirdLife SA. We cover the vital work BirdLife is doing in South Africa as well as around the globe, protecting species and habitat while also integrating community into the conservation process, as well as discuss her mission to bring more minorities into birding. (I also fawn a little over the accent because, well, it's so awesome!) So grab a drink and snack and get your bird nerd on with us!

Tegan Douglas is a bird researcher, proud Bird Nerd and the Citizen Science Project Co-Ordinator at Birdlife Australia's Western Australia office. In this episode we talk about many of Western Australia's endangered birds, Carnaby's Black Cockatoo, Western Ground Parrot, Noisy Scrub-bird, Western Bristlebird and the efforts to secure the populations. Tegan tells me about her earlier fieldwork with the Red-browed Treecreeper, and why she loves Australian Babblers. In a wide-ranging (and fun) conversation we discuss many conservation strategies, modern urban landscapes, the largest area of natural woodland on the planet and the Western Australian landscape feature that is visible from space! Here's the link to that urban sprawl versus urban infill paper Tegan was talking about: https://www.fullerlab.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Sushinsky-et-al-2013.pdf Follow Tegan on Twitter for informative and entertaining bird content @TeganDouglas Currently trying to get some eyes and subscribers on The Bird Emergency on YouTube, so I can put a bit more effort into the video side of things, so if you would like more visual content, please subscribe, and I will watch with interest if that's what you want!
