Gabrielle Jackson, Deputy Editor at Guardian Australia with a focus on environment and culture, joins Sean Dooley, a leading figure at BirdLife Australia, for a lively discussion around the Bird of the Year poll. They explore past election scandals, including vote-rigging attempts, and debate which Australian birds might represent political slogans. With a mix of humor and serious conservation messages, they highlight the importance of supporting threatened species, like the regent honeyeater, while encouraging listeners to engage with local bird life.
