In-Store Presentation @ 11am | Tuning In: A Journey Into Ear Birding.
Talk Description - Join us for an inside look at the rewarding world of birding by ear. Eric will share his personal journey into ear birding, tips for getting started, and how technology can help, or sometimes hinder, the process. Discover why you don’t need perfect hearing to identify birds by sound and why bird songs and calls are so endlessly fascinating. Along the way, Eric will share real-world examples from birding his local patches and his many adventures abroad as a bird guide and traveler.
