Public transportation users: Meeting location is one mile from Bayside LIRR station; you can either walk, take the Q12 bus, or use car service located at station. Stephane Perrault will present "Birding by Ear on Long Island: Spring Warbler Songs". This program is for birders who would like to learn or review warbler songs as we enter the core of spring migration. The songs of 30 locally common and uncommon warblers will be presented in practical learning groups. Traditional tools such as digital recordings, sonograms, and catchy phrases will be used to get a handle on the identification of our warblers by ear. Stephane has been actively birding on Long Island since 1995. Prior to living in southern NY, he studied Ornithology at McGill University, and published breeding studies on the American Redstart and Yellow Warbler.
