SOBRE ESTE EPISÓDIO
This week on Bird Brain, I’m joined by Stephen Moss: broadcaster, ornithologist, and author of, among a rather large list, The Robin.
Together, we've done a special Christmas deep dive into Aardman Animations’ Robin Robin.
We explore why the robin is Britain’s most beloved festive bird, how Aardman brings nature to life through stop-motion storytelling, and what the film gets right (and delightfully wrong) about real bird behaviour. We also chat about what a nice man Nick Park is, the science of garden birds at Christmas, and the surprising role pet cats play as predators in our backyards.
If you love wildlife, animation, folklore or just need a dose of cosy seasonal nature chat, this one’s for you!
