Description

In this hike, you'll explore the language and communication styles of our avian friends. From tiny alarm calls to soaring hawk vocalizations, you will use your ears to explore nature in a wonderfully new way. At the end of the hike, you'll be able to identify some common bird names and songs, but more importantly you'll learn to listen to the nuanced language of birds. Meet at the Guild-Hardy Trailhead parking lot. About the teacher: Laura Marsh (MSc) is a field ornithologist and conservation biologist.
