The Queens County Bird Club will hold its next meeting via Zoom on Wednesday, Oct 20, 2021 at 7:30 pm. The presentation will be “The Language of Birds” by Nathan Pieplow, a Peterson Guide author highly recommended by QCBC member Donna Schulman.
Description of presentation: All around us, all the time, the birds are telling us who they are and what they are doing. In this talk for any audience, Nathan Pieplow 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.
