Today's poem is I Am Trying to Love the Whole World by Jenny Browne. The Slowdown is currently taking a break. We'll be back soon with new episodes from a new host. This week, we're revisiting some favorites from Major Jackson's time as host. Today's episode was originally released on December 21, 2023. In this episode, Major writes… “If only we viewed observations of the natural world and meditations on birds, mammals, and plant life as equally, critically urgent, we might awaken to the necessity of caretaking of our planet and each other. Birdwatching does not have to be a form of looking away, it can be an antidote for our spirit.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.

Vögel? Damit hat Input-Host Anna Kreidler nichts am Hut. Anders ihre Cousine Natalie (24): «Wenn ich einen seltenen Vogel sehe, ist das für mich ein Glücksmoment.» Mit dieser Faszination ist sie nicht allein. Immer mehr Junge interessieren sich für Vögel. Warum ist das so? Auch Livio Rey, Mediensprecher der Vogelwarte Sempach, beobachtet einen Anstieg bei den Vogelinteressierten in der Schweiz: «Während Corona haben wir einen Anstieg bemerkt. Die Leute riefen an, weil sie wissen wollten, was sie im Garten sehen.» Er findet es gut, dass sich heute mehr Junge und Frauen für Vögel interessieren und nicht nur ältere Herren mit Bart und Outdoorausrüstung. «Das bringt eine positive Dynamik rein.» Eine dieser jungen Beobachter:innen ist Natalie. Ihre Faszination für Vögel begann bereits im Kindesalter. Sie malte Vögel aus Fachbüchern nach und lernte ihren Gesang mit Hilfe von CDs auswendig. Heute ist sie Vogelexkursionsleiterin und zeigt Anna einen Tag lang die Welt der Vögel. Ob Anna ihre Meinung über Vögel ändert? Davon handelt diese Folge. ____________________ Habt ihr Feedback, Fragen oder Wünsche?

Fifteen years ago, actor Lili Taylor took a sabbatical and spent time at her house in upstate New York. There, in the quiet, she started to listen. As she writes, "I started to hear birds. It was as if I'd switched my studio input from one dimension to Dolby stereo." It changed her perception of the world. In her new book of essays Turning to Birds: The Power and Beauty of Noticing, she writes about her encounters with the natural world, what she has gained by paying attention to her surroundings, and how her connection with nature helps her find peace and calm.

Backyard watching is how many people begin in the activity of birdwatching.  There is nothing that should hold someone back, except time, in becoming a birder.  Birdwatching is a "gateway to the outdoors."

For the first time in decades, American duck hunters will have the opportunity to legally harvest three pintails during the 2025–26 season due to a new interim pintail harvest strategy that was approved in 2024. On this episode, Dr. Mike Brasher is joined by state migratory bird managers Brandon Reishus (Oregon) and Mike Szymanski (North Dakota) to discuss this new strategy and what it means going forward. Duck hunters have been asking lots of questions about the new strategy, and this episode aims to answer them. Why was a new strategy needed, and how did hunters contribute to the data that made it possible? Why are liberal regulations being offered when the pintail population is near historic lows? What are the objectives of the new strategy? How will it be evaluated? Why does the new strategy not include sex restrictions? How and when will the strategy be evaluated? Lastly, why is habitat conservation ultimately more important than harvest regulations for the future of pintail populations?Listen now: www.ducks.org/DUPodcastSend feedback: DUPodcast@ducks.org
