Celebrating Two Seasons of Nature's Wonders

The Backyard Naturalists

Welcome to a special episode of The Backyard Naturalists podcast! Join hosts Debbie, Laurie, and Chris as we take a fond look back at our first two seasons, celebrating nature's marvels and the podcast's journey. With listeners spanning 107 countries, 50 states, and the Carolinas, we're thrilled to share our passion for the outdoors.

Having earned the "Best of the Weeklies" podcast award, we're grateful for the global nature community we've built. In this episode, we reveal the origins of our inspiration and the excitement that brought this podcast to life. Plus, get ready for an exciting teaser: a forthcoming series featuring our top three guests from the past two seasons.

Tune in this week to relive the magic and stay curious about the natural world!

If you have ideas for topics that you'd like us to pursue, send us a message either on our Facebook page or our website. We would really like to hear from you.

We start this episode by talking about creating wildlife habitats. That initial episode of Creating Wildlife Habitats is still in the top three listened episodes for us. These principles have overlapped with almost every episode we've had. It's a really good guiding network for us to keep in mind.
