The Language of Birds - Presentation and Book Signing with Nathan Pieplow!

[Lindsey Broadhead]

Hello Colorado birders,

Wild Bear Nature Center in Nederland, CO is thrilled to announce a FREE presentation and book signing featuring special guest and author of the Peterson Field Guide to Bird Sounds, Nathan Pieplow! View more details below:

ABOUT

All around us, the birds are constantly 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.

Nathan Pieplow is the author of the Peterson Field Guide to Bird Sounds, published in two volumes, Eastern (2017) and Western (2019). An avid bird sound recordist and videographer, he is the author of the bird sound blog Earbirding.com, a board member of the Bird Conservancy of the Rockies, an author of the Colorado Birding Trail, and former editor of the journal Colorado Birds. He teaches writing and rhetoric at the University of Colorado in Boulder.

*Masks will be required indoors regardless of vaccination status per Boulder County Public Health mandate.
