This 2-day virtual event explores the fascinating world of sound-based bird identification, from field techniques to the technology used to recognize and track bird calls. There is a $25/person registration fee to participate in the program, but those funds support AgriLife’s Rio Diablo Birding Camp program for youth. Please note that the registration deadline is November 20, 2024.

On November 19th, speaker Kristi Dranginis will lead a session on the skill of “birding by ear” to help participants hone their listening skills and enhance their birding experience.

Part two on November 20th features Dr. Damon Lesmeister, who will share how cutting-edge technology transforms research and the ability to monitor the biodiversity of the forest. 

All virtual seminars will be recorded and made available for later viewing by registrants.
