"I can't recognise birds by their call." How many times do I hear this! If you can tell one tune from another, or distinguish friends on the phone by their voices, you can learn to tell a blackbird from a song thrush. This course aims to sort out about 20-25 of the commonest birds, by which time you will understand what you are listening for and know when it is something new. Starting indoors with tapes, we will venture outside to the real world of birdsong.
Dates of meetings: 17 Jan, 31 Jan, 14, 28 Feb and 14 Mar.
