Birding By Ear |
| |
We are fortunate to have Larry Liese
speak at our banquet. A long-time member
of Tucson Audubon, Larry hails from
Vermont and is a terrific guide whether
in Mexico, Central America, or Arizona.
He leads field trips, birding and natural
history trips throughout southern Arizona,
as well as Belize, Chihuahua, Jalisco,
Mata Ortiz and other south of the border
spots. Larry started the Dastardly Duos
column for Tucson Audubon and teaches
a course on birding by ear. He loves
sharing his passion for birds with people
of all levels and his excitement and
enthusiasm are contagious. Come and
learn about birding by ear just in time
to practice. NOTE: The May program will
be associated with our Annual Banquet.
Although there is no charge to attend
our general membership meetings, the
annual banquet does require a dinner
reservation and associated cost. Check
our Web
site, newsletter, or contact a board
member for location information. |
