CANCELLED Backyard Birdsong at Novato Library

April 18, 2020 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm

By mid-April, spring’s crescendo of birdsong is at its peak. In this seminar at the Novato Library, we’ll introduce you to the most common songs and other vocalizations heard from our backyard birds. In addition to learning how to recognize about a dozen of our favorite yard birds by ear, you’ll also gain insight into questions like:

  • Why do birds sing? Which kinds of birds sing and when?
  • What are other bird calls communicating?
  • How do you learn birdsong? What tips, tricks, and techniques will make it easier both to remember these birds and to learn others in the future?

Nothing will help you to observe more birds more than learning their songs and calls, and there’s no better place to start recognizing their vocalizations than in your own yard.

This free presentation at the Novato Library will begin at 11 AM on Saturday, April 18 and last about 45 minutes, with time for questions afterwards. No registration required. This seminar has been cancelled due to the ongoing COVID-19 health measures. We will reschedule when possible.
