A year ago I made this podcast about Sky Hunter, an old BBC educational kids film (shown as part of Look and Read) about peregrines and wildlife crime. It was a nostalgic passion project but came to mean so much more. goldengrenades.com/podcast/epis...

Thank you @yolobirder.bsky.social and @electrarhodes.bsky.social for arranging this class and giving me the inspiration to write this piece and then posting on @goldengrenadesco.bsky.social website - very chuffed (or choughed)

A new fable is born! Read this magical tale from @joelrawlings.bsky.social

One of the attendees at our recent birdlore writing masterclass led by @electrarhodes.bsky.social was inspired to write this story and we love it! Lovely stuff from @joelrawlings.bsky.social 👇 goldengrenades.com/the-magpie-t...

Really enjoyed this! Likely to be of particular interest to the #ShropshireBirding community, given Dawn’s links to the county.

I am really enjoying these episodes, getting reminders of birds I used to know and love and lots of great anecdotes.
