Australian nature is full of strange, surprising and sometimes silly sounds. From cicadas that sound like sprinklers to moaning mutton birds, there are heaps of weird noises to discover.
Join host and nature lover, Ann, as we use our ears to listen to the different sounds that Australian nature makes. Along the way we’ll find out some fun facts and train little ears to listen to the chorus of calls that make up the natural world around us.

Chattering Providence Petrels
Today, Ann is exploring an island way off the NSW coast. Someone is coming in to land – and not very gracefully. It’s a bird that has flown a very long way to be here.
-
Growling Green and Gold Frogs
Ann is enjoying spotting lots of birds in a special hide on the Tamar Island Wetlands, when she hears a song that is definitely not a bird. Someone is calling out while they bask in the sunshine, decked out in bright green with a gold stripe.
-
Crooning Gerygones
Ann is taking a break from her walk by a big, wide river when she hears someone singing a very pretty song from the eucalypts above. It’s showing off lots of different melodies.
-
Squabbling Little Red Flying Foxes
Down by a creek, Ann is filling up her billy to make a camp dinner when she hears a loud cry. But it’s not one someone, but lots of someones, just waking up and having their breakfast.
-
Cooing Rock Doves
Ann is getting ready to swim in a pool in Adelaide, when – splat! Someone’s poo lands right near her foot, shot from a ledge just above her.
-
Bleating Tree Frogs
Right now, Ann is helping on her friend’s farm when she steps in some squelchy mud by the dam. There’s someone who loves the mud so much, they’re singing.

We love this podcast! My toddler and I love listening and learning together. We both learn something in every episode and Anne narrates it perfectly to keep kiddos engaged but gently enough that we all enjoy it in the car.
