May 2025 FWAS General Meeting: The Language of Birds presented by Nathan Pieplow
May 8 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Join us on Thursday night at 7:00 PM for our last monthly meeting before the summer break.
The program will be The Language of Bird, presented by Nathan Pieplow from the University of Colorado. Nathan is the author of the Peterson Field Guide to Bird Sounds and author of the bird sound blog Earbirding.com.
All around us, all the time, the birds are telling us who they are and what they are doing. In this talk Nathan unlocks the secrets of their language. You’ll listen in on the pillow talk of a pair of Red-winged Blackbirds, and learn the secret signals that Cliff Swallows use when they have found food. You’ll learn how one bird sound can have many meanings, and how one meaning can have many sounds—and how, sometimes, the meaning isn’t in the sounds at all. This talk from the author of the Peterson Field Guide to Bird Sounds is an accessible, entertaining introduction to a fascinating topic.
This meeting will be both an in-person and streamed on-line event. Click here to go to the Zoom link.
