Birding is fun! Plain and simple! To appreciate, understand and enjoy the bird life around them, birders must rely on the to instantly recognize their fine feathered friends. Identifying birds quickly and easily by sound is not only one of the biggest frustrations birders experience, it is also the singular focus of this presentation by award-winning author and ornithologist John C. Robinson. This includes a set of advanced techniques that can be adapted year-after-year to fine-tune one’s ability to identify similar-sounding bird species or challenging species groups regardless of geographic location.
