Episode Synopsis "Identifying birds and why you should"

Kylie is joined again by Martin Ziviani, Avisure's Senior Wildlife Biologist. In this episode, Kylie and Marty talk about why identifying birds on airports is critical to an effective wildlife management program. They talk about how challenging it can be for people who aren’t specifically trained in ornithology (the science of birds), or for those who aren't that interested in birds, and how these challenges can be overcome using a few simple tips.
