Outdoor Adventure Series
Bridget Butler, The Bird Diva and the Owner of Bird Diva Consulting
Hello everyone, and welcome back for another episode of the Outdoor Adventure Series Podcast. The Outdoor Adventure Series celebrates individuals & families, businesses, and organizations that seek out and promote the exploration of the great outdoors.
Our guest today is Bridget Butler.
Bridget is the Bird Diva and the owner of Bird Diva Consulting.
Bridget is a naturalist that helps people connect with the place that they live through building a relationship with birds and the land - nature connection/immersion, “Sit Spot", and “Slow Birding”.
In her own life and with her clients, Bridget believes that we need the space & time to sit in nature alone, slow down, and be present in the moment with birds.
She loves to facilitate those "wow" moments, listening to people's stories about their experiences with birds and teasing out a bit more, guiding them to their own identification or realization about what was happening in that moment.
Bridget feels that there's a lot to discuss around the bird community shifting and advocating for more safe, inclusive, and accessible opportunities to go Birding.

Reflecting on a personal connection with nature. What do we value? How do we stay connected and set intentions for our practice of connecting? I have a great quote for this that I'd be happy to share.
