NaturallyScott
At least once a week, I’ll bring you the very best of America’s spectacular world of nature — from birds to mammals, to reptiles and amphibians. From soaring mountains to endless plains, from rugged coastlines to rivers and streams.
Each episode will feature an expert guest — a ranger, a researcher, a birder, or an adventurer — someone who has seen what we want to see and been where we want to go.

E06 Scott Edwards - Bringing Dead Birds to Life!
This week on NaturallyScott, I’m joined by Scott V. Edwards, Alexander Agassiz Professor of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology at Harvard University.
Professor Edwards shares the incredible story of biking across the United States, reflecting on how the journey connected him more deeply to the landscapes and wildlife he has studied throughout his career. Along the way, we dive into the legacy of President Theodore Roosevelt—his outsized impact on natural history, conservation, and the way we think about America’s wild spaces today.
It’s a conversation about science, endurance, history, and the open road—told by one of the most distinguished evolutionary biologists in the country.
