Presentations
Learn 2 Bird offers colorful, educational, and light-hearted presentations covering many aspects of bird life, bird biology, and general nature and ecology. Below is a list of prepared presentations but we can cater to your needs with enough lead time.
For the record, our talks are about discovering the wonder of birds. We are not purveyors of "doom and gloom" scenarios as there is too much to be enjoyed and appreciated in nature. Our talks are positive and fun and the audience, especially kids, will walk away hopeful and excited, not fearful and despondent.
Locations will be arranged by hosting group or agency which will also need to provide electricity, projector, and a screen. If you don't have a projector, please contact me.
