AE 837 – The Goss: World Record Migrations, Hero Birds, & Wallabies Invade Great Britain

Learn Australian English by listening to this episode of The Goss! These are conversations with my old man Ian Smissen for you to learn more about Australian culture, news, and current affairs.

In this episode, we talk about bar-tailed godwit birds that migrate to Australia! These long legged birds recently broke the world record for the longest nonstop migration – almost 12,000 kilometres, whew! We also talk about a pet parrot who saved his owner by waking him up during a fire. And finally, we talk about wallabies on the loose in Britain.
