Our guest this episode is Brendan McGarry, a Naturalist living and working in the upper Skagit River Basin and the Cascade mountains.  We had a great conversation about the swifts living in his chimney, variability in wildflower season from year to year, his watershed ‘big year’, challenges and rewards in environmental education, and the remarkable behavior of crows.

Brendan’s blog can be found at https://wingtrip.org, and his photo catalog is located at https://www.brendanmcgarry.com
