Name That Chirp: A Guide To Backyard Birdwatching
April 08, 2020
It’s spring, it’s warming up, the birds are singing … but what kind of bird is that? Can you tell just by the song? Today we welcome bird experts and enthusiasts from the Indiana Audubon Society to share tips and tricks on attracting and identifying all kinds of Indiana birds.
And can our guests match the bird to the song? We play a game of “Name That Bird” to find out. From hawks to hummingbirds, it’s a full hour of appreciation for our winged neighbors.
Produced by Matt Pelsor.
Guests:
Brad Bumgardner
Executive Director, Indiana Audubon Society
Amy Wilms
Board President, Indiana Audubon Society
John Schaust
Chief Naturalist, Wild Birds Unlimited
