Les mer NaturallyScott

At least once a week, I’ll bring you the very best of America’s spectacular world of nature — from birds to mammals, to reptiles and amphibians. From soaring mountains to endless plains, from rugged coastlines to rivers and streams. Each episode will feature an expert guest — a ranger, a researcher, a birder, or an adventurer — someone who has seen what we want to see and been where we want to go.

E61 Naturally Scott Adventures – One Million Snow Geese! 🕊️❄️

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2523691/fan_mail/new] Welcome to the very first edition of Naturally Scott Adventures — a new series where Scott Harris takes you directly into the field to experience some of nature’s greatest spectacles, species, and wild places. And for Episode 61, we begin with one of the most breathtaking wildlife gatherings on Earth: one million snow geese at Loess Bluffs National Wildlife Refuge. Each March, hundreds of thousands — and sometimes more than a million — snow geese converge on this Missouri refuge during migration. The sound is overwhelming. The sky turns white with birds. Bald eagles patrol the edges. Coyotes wait in the darkness. And for a few weeks, one corner of the Midwest becomes one of the greatest wildlife spectacles in North America. In this episode: 🕊️ What it feels like to stand beside a million snow geese  🦅 Bald eagles hunting over massive flocks  🌨️ Watching snow geese land during a snowstorm  📸 Why sunrise and sunset matter most for wildlife viewing  🦢 Trumpeter swans, muskrats, coyotes & red-winged blackbirds  🚗 How to visit Loess Bluffs yourself Scott also reflects on why this experience became one of his personal “perfect moments” in nature — alongside music, memory, and the feeling of being completely immersed in the wild. Upcoming Naturally Scott Adventures episodes include: 🐊 Alligators  🦉 Burrowing Owls  🦅 California Condors  🐎 Wild Horses of Nevada 👉 Stay up to date and get bonus content here: https://naturallyscott.kit.com/5fd12c6752 [https://naturallyscott.kit.com/5fd12c6752]

E60 Zach Steinhauser – One Million Purple Martins & South Carolina’s Greatest Wildlife SpectacleUntitled Episode

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2523691/fan_mail/new] What does it feel like to sit beneath a sky filled with a million birds? In this episode of Naturally Scott, Scott Harris is joined by naturalist, filmmaker, and Carolina Safari Co. founder Zach Steinhauser for a conversation about one of America’s most overlooked wildlife spectacles—the gathering of over a million Purple Martins at Bomb Island on South Carolina’s Lake Murray. Zach shares the remarkable story behind his documentary Purple Haze and explains how these tiny swallows became almost entirely dependent on humans for nesting sites. The conversation moves from South Carolina to the deserts of Arizona and even the Amazon rainforest, following Zach’s journey to uncover the hidden story of Purple Martins across the Americas. Along the way, they discuss: The surreal experience of watching a million birds spiral overhead  Why Purple Martins rely on human-made housing  The search for naturally nesting martins in giant saguaro cacti  Filming in the Amazon rainforest  South Carolina wildlife spectacles most people never experience This episode is a celebration of wonder, migration, storytelling, and the wild places still hiding in plain sight. This episode, like all Naturally Scott episodes, is dedicated to Scott’s mother — an incredible mind, an incredible woman, and a shatterer of many glass ceilings. She was a force, but never quiet. 👉 Stay up to date and get bonus content here: https://naturallyscott.kit.com/5fd12c6752 [https://naturallyscott.kit.com/5fd12c6752]

E59 Matt Forister – Butterflies, Climate Change & the Hidden Crisis Facing Insects

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2523691/fan_mail/new] Butterflies are beautiful. They are also disappearing. In this episode of Naturally Scott, Scott Harris sits down with University of Nevada, Reno biology professor Matt Forister for a fascinating and surprisingly urgent conversation about butterflies, insect declines, climate change, pesticides, and why these tiny creatures may tell us more about the health of our planet than almost anything else. Matt explains how a decades-long butterfly monitoring project in California revealed dramatic declines in both butterfly abundance and species diversity, and why modern pesticide use may be playing a major role. But this conversation is not all doom and gloom. It is also about wonder. From tiny butterflies no larger than a fingernail to massive monarch migrations stretching across North America, Matt shares why butterflies captivate so many people and how anyone can begin exploring the incredible diversity of the insect world. Topics include: 🦋 Why butterflies are declining across North America  🌎 Climate change and shifting migration patterns  ☠️ The hidden dangers of modern pesticides  🐛 Why caterpillars and moths matter more than most people realize  📚 The surprising book that led Matt into science  🔬 How 53 years of butterfly data became one of the longest-running insect studies in America This episode is dedicated to Scott’s mother — an incredible mind, an incredible woman, and a shatterer of many glass ceilings. She was a force, but never quiet. 👉 Stay up to date and get bonus content here: https://naturallyscott.kit.com/5fd12c6752 [https://naturallyscott.kit.com/5fd12c6752]

E58 Wade Crowfoot – Water, Wildfire & the Future of Conservation in California

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2523691/fan_mail/new] In this episode of Naturally Scott, Scott Harris sits down with Wade Crowfoot, Secretary of the California Natural Resources Agency, for a wide-ranging conversation about conservation, climate challenges, and the future of one of the most biodiverse places on Earth. Wade shares how a childhood spent outdoors in the Midwest shaped his path into public service, and how his work now spans everything from wildfire prevention and water management to protecting California’s vast natural landscapes. Together, Scott and Wade explore the realities of managing natural resources in a state of 40 million people—where conservation, development, and climate pressures all collide. The conversation dives into: How California is tackling wildfire through forest management and prescribed burns  The future of water in the West, including drought, desalination, and the Colorado River  The surprising resilience of nature—from salmon returning to restored rivers to rewilding efforts  The role of technology and innovation in conservation  Why protecting nature ultimately means protecting ourselves From redwood forests to Monterey Bay, this episode offers a fascinating look at the challenges—and hope—facing conservation in the modern world. 👉 Stay up to date and get access to bonus content by joining us here: https://naturallyscott.kit.com/5fd12c6752 [https://naturallyscott.kit.com/5fd12c6752]

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2523691/fan_mail/new] This episode is a first for Naturally Scott — a panel conversation. Scott Harris brings together three remarkable voices — Sy Montgomery, Debi Shearwater, and Lynn Scarlett — for an honest, thoughtful discussion about the history of women in birding, how the experience has evolved, and where things stand today. Each brings a different perspective: science and storytelling, business and field leadership, and public policy and conservation. Together, they reflect on what it was like entering male-dominated spaces decades ago, the challenges they faced, the progress that’s been made, and the work still left to do. 🐦 What birding and science looked like for women decades ago  ⚖️ Moments of exclusion, resistance, and unexpected opportunity  🌎 How perspectives in science and conservation have evolved  🤝 The importance of mentorship, inclusion, and community  ✨ Why diverse voices make both birding — and conservation — stronger This is a conversation about more than birding — it’s about access, perspective, and the people who help shape how we see the natural world. This episode is also dedicated to Scott’s mother — an incredible mind, an extraordinary woman, and a quiet force who shattered glass ceilings long before it was expected. Her influence lives on in conversations like this. 📬 Stay curious & get bonus content:  https://naturallyscott.kit.com/5fd12c6752 [https://naturallyscott.kit.com/5fd12c6752]
