Birding by Ear (Early Spring)

Instructor: Denise Wight

12

sessions on:  

Venue: Zoom with field trips

Spring!  It’s a great time to learn bird sounds of our resident birds, as well as those of returning migrants. From the morning chorus to the evening roosting, birds are singing, reinforcing pair bonds, defending territories, and just keeping track of one another. 

We will explore various techniques for learning how to identify the songs and calls local birds, especially  the vocalizations of the species we hope to encounter on our the field trips. 

Due to the interactive nature of this course, class presentations will not be recorded.

  • Six Thursday evening classes by Zoom, March 3, 10, 17, 24, 31; April 7: 7 to 8:30 p.m.
  • Six Saturday morning field trips, 2 days after the lecture, 8 to 11 am.
  • $150 for GGAS members, $175 for non-members

 

Registration opens: 12/10/2021

Limited to 20 participants
