Birdznerdz

A narrative podcast revealing the extraordinary biology, behavior, and stories behind the most common birds seen in Britain.

The brief

This is a solo-narrated, tightly-scripted audio documentary series focusing on British ornithology. Each episode acts as a deep-dive profile of a single bird, from the garden robin to the peregrine falcon. The host weaves together natural history, conservation narratives, and cultural folklore into a compelling, story-driven format.

Unlike broader nature shows, Birdznerdz finds the extraordinary in the ordinary, focusing on the most common British birds. Its strength lies in connecting these birds to major conservation stories, such as the Knepp Estate rewilding project or the founding of the RSPB, giving familiar wildlife a dramatic new context.
