Episode 77: Eric Masterson – A story of connection

‘Where there’s a path there’s a story’
- Eric Masterson

Eric has had a lifelong fascination with birds, especially the movement of birds across continents during migration events. One way that he has been able to observe these movements is by recording the nocturnal sounds of migrating birds as they pass over his home in New Hampshire.

Listen to hear more about:

• Eric’s early nature experiences in Ireland and how they shaped his future.

• Nightsongs - the video about Eric’s project of recording nocturnal bird migration.

• The broad-winged hawk and how they captured Eric’s imagination.

• The incredible ways that Eric connected with the migration route of these birds.

• Ways that birds connect people across continents.

• Thoughts on conservation and how we can protect birds.
  

Be sure to watch the video Nightsongs, which features Eric and his recording of the nocturnal migration as birds fly over his home in New Hampshire. Nightsongs was co-created with saltproject.org.
