Comments from Program Directors
"Not a week goes by when I don't hear a listener sing the praises of California Bird Talk.
It's our most consistently praised short feature."
Beowulf Rochlen, Public Affairs Director, KUSP
"Bird Talk reflects the natural curiosity all of us have to explore our world.
Every episode is full of vibrant sound, with creative demonstrations of how birds create their unique songs.
And Hogness fills the role of friendly, engaging docent for the audio nature walk."
Eric Teel,
Director of FM Network Programming,
Jefferson Public Radio
"California Bird talk gives us the science — and the art — of birdsong.
It's a popular feature on KRCB, now in its third go round on our air, and
popular with underwriters too."
Robin Pressman, Program Director, KRCB Radio
