We all know that Australia is full of wild and interesting animals. When people think of Australia, they think of venomous and dangerous animals. But many visitors to Australia are shocked by animals they had never thought of before. They're seemingly attacked from above! Swooping is often the first challenge against nature that visitors often face. And so it was for our guest Mirella. She talks about her love - hate relationship with nature and how she is overcoming her fear of being swooped. We talk about how some practical tips have enabled her to not only feel safe, but to make friends with the local wildlife. We talk about the beautiful wildlife of Australia, and some different species that people might not have thought about. This is mandatory listening for anyone planning on living or visiting Australia between late winter and early summer. Have you ever been swooped? What was your experience like?
