Trauma therapist , birder, and author of My Summer with Ospreys, Pamela Lowell believes that hope is a great motivator.

From her decades of work with people dealing with immense suffering, she’s found that nature can be an incredible balm.

But when her enjoyment of birds in the marsh behind her home was drowned out by the sound of chainsaws, it turned out that her sanctuary was being clear cut. 100 acres torn down… for a parking lot.

Thus began Pamela’s foray into activism, birding, and seeking care for the Ospreys who now found themselves at great risk.

“Nature can also break your heart,” she said.

Join us for this special episode all about Ospreys, but also about hope, transformation, and what a few determined people can do to help save one little corner of the world.
