Next week's Monday Night Seminar will be presented by Julie Zickefoose. Julie has presented at the Lab previously, and you may know her voice from her pieces on NPR or her writing from past books and essays. Hope to see you here!
Monday, October 29, 2012 7:30 PM in the Cornell Lab of Ornithology Auditorium The Bluebird Effect: Uncommon Bonds with Common Birds. (Presentation and book signing) Julie Zickefoose The Bluebird Effect: Uncommon Bonds with Common Birds is about what happens when, by virtue of raising it when it's orphaned or helping it when it's hurt, you are taken into the confidence of a wild bird. It's about the unexpected mental and emotional capacities of birds, especially songbirds, which we tend to underestimate and overlook. Everyone knows that crows, ravens and parrots are intelligent, but have you thought about hummingbirds? Julie Zickefoose has a unique perspective, having been mother to six. And to Chimney Swifts, Cedar Waxwings, Mourning Doves, Northern Cardinals, and Rose-breasted Grosbeaks, to name a few. Join her for an intimate, eye-opening look at the rich mental and emotional landscape of birds. Julie’s new book, “The Bluebird Effect,” will be available for purchase and signing. -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
