The Genius of Birds — Bird Lens is an independent educational companion to the science of avian intelligence. Hosts Sheila and Victor turn research on bird brains and behavior into clear, interactive conversations that build from essential terms to experiments, edge cases, and practical observation. Follow crows, parrots, pigeons, and other remarkable birds as the series explores neurons, tool use, memory, navigation, communication, social learning, and the changing science of animal minds. Each episode is evidence-led, accessible, and designed to be easy to follow.
