What is Bird Magic🪶✨?
Bird Magic is a term used to describe moments with nature that are profound, coincidental, and deeply magical.
For me, it happens most often with birds; however, this magic can show itself in many forms:
A fox on the back porch, a silkworm moth resting in the shed, a particularly charismatic flower facing your direction, the full moon low on the horizon.
These moments often leave us with a profound sense of connection with the natural world.
One particular theme of bird magic that seems to be strangely common happens around times of grief and death.
I’ve had dozens of people tell me stories about the cardinals, turkeys, hawks, cranes or foxes (etc.) that appeared after someone they knew had passed away.
This phenomenon is an integral part of my own family lore and has shaped my world view in a meaningful way. For me, it shows just how connected we are with the natural world and the powerful ways nature can help us to heal.
Our Mission
My mission with Bird Magic is to help bring wildlife closer to us by creating nest boxes, educating communities, and advocating for our wild neighbors.
As a wildlife biologist by trade, I have 10+ years of experience creating and installing nest boxes for a variety of species on public lands.
Through Bird Magic, I hope to do the same within our communities and neighborhoods.
