Suzy Buttress Interview, The Learning Garden, Straw Bale Gardening
This week I get into my year at the Learning Garden, have a great chat with Suzy Buttress of The Casual Birder Podcast, and I review a couple of books on Straw Bale Gardening. I have to apologize, near the end of the Podcast accidentally called Patrina Small by the name Patricia.
After speaking with Suzy Buttress I was still unable to work out the hawk that made an unscheduled appearance in the podcast, but in the process I did stumble onto All About Birds. Its linked to the Cornell Universities Merlin App database. Here is a link to her appearance on the Hummingbirds Episode of the Varmints Podcast.
Here are the birds mentioned in the interview care of All About Birds.
- Collared Doves
- White Winged Pigeons
- Sharp Shinned Hawk
- Coopers Hawk
- Morning Dove
- Black Phoebe
- Californian Towhee
And here are some links to other things mentioned in the interview.
- Humming Bird Calls
- Structural Color
- Aotearoa's extinct bird calls
- Thousands Of Feral Lime Green Parakeets Call Bakersfield Home
- Silent Spring
Wrapping up the podcast I review the following books.
- Straw Bale Gardens Complete, Updated Edition: Breakthrough Method for Growing Vegetables Anywhere, Earlier and with No Weeding 2nd Edition by Joel Karsten
- Growing Vegetables in Straw Bales: Easy Planting, Less Weeding, Early Harvests. A Storey BASICS® Title Paperback by Craig LeHoullier
