In the first season of Topic's series, the avian advocate and father of two travels around the Northeast, from Cape May, New Jersey, to Maine, delighting audiences with his contagious curiosity about the natural world-and the creatures within it. Those creatures include those of the human variety, too, with guests such as comedian Wyatt Cenac, Dr. Drew Lanham of Clemson University, "The Birdist" Nicholas Lund, the American Museum of Natural History's Paul Sweet, and the Feminist Bird Club. (Plus Jason's younger brother Jeffrey, a fellow birder and formidable opponent in the brothers' annual bird count competition.) Get your binoculars ready.See less
