Gifts from the Sky - Collaborating with Owls and Songbirds in Vineyards

Matt Johnson Ph.D. is a wildlife ecologist, ornithologist, agroecologist, and a professor in the Department of Wildlife at Cal Poly Humboldt in Northern California. This episode looks at the amazing solutions and incredible benefits that winegrowers can incentivize by actively welcoming songbirds and owls onto wine landscapes… as well as the beautifully rich and wonderful world that can result from opening yourself to relationships with the more than human members of your world.
