This series is a love letter to the under-loved, the misunderstood, and the birds humans get wrong every single day. These are not the glamorous documentary species filmed on the far side of the planet. These are the birds you see on estates, rooftops, school playgrounds, seaside towns, motorway edges, and scruffy riverbanks. The everyday birds people overlook, complain about or call pests. But these species are the ones that tell the real story of how wildlife and people live together. Written and voiced by bird expert Nadeem Perera.

Episode 1 - Pigeon
The classic city bird. Chest puffed. Neck shimmering like slick oil on water. Moving through streets like a long term resident who knows every shortcut and has no interest in leaving.
