Josh Dewitt
BirderAbout Josh Dewitt
Josh Dewitt became fascinated with the bird world at a young age, having received his first field guide on his 10th birthday. He has been birding ever since. It doesn’t matter what activities Josh is involved in, whether that be climbing mountains, hiking through rainforests, paddling remote lakes, or rappelling into caves, he is always on the lookout for birds and other wildlife.
Josh’s interests extend beyond birds to animal behaviour more broadly. His work and interests span a wide range of wildlife; from carnivorans to birds and crocodilians, with his most developed work focused on lemur vocalizations. His background includes not just studies in animal behaviour, but also experience in outdoor education, science communication, and time spent working as a zookeeper — experiences that shaped how he reads animal behaviour and communicates it to others.
He has also participated in conservation and citizen science initiatives in Manitoba, contributing to regional bird and herp monitoring efforts. Wherever Josh goes, he is eager to share his knowledge and enthusiasm for the natural world, helping others see more, learn more, and connect more deeply with wildlife.
