What do you call the place an animal lives? In this episode of The Backyard Naturalists, Debbie and Laurie dive into the surprisingly fascinating world of animal homes. From bird nests and squirrel dreys to eagle aeries, bobcat dens, bird rookeries, and bee hives, they explore the wide variety of places wildlife builds, borrows, and calls home. Along the way, they share fun facts about everything from turtles, termites, and raccoons to alligators, snakes, wolves, and even octopuses.
As always, the conversation is lively, curious, and full of the kind of nature trivia that makes you look at the backyard a little differently. Whether you are a bird lover, a wildlife watcher, or just someone who enjoys learning the language of the natural world, this episode is packed with surprising discoveries and plenty of charm.
