Coming next Friday evening, April 18, to the Cleveland Museum of Natural
History for The William and Nancy Klamm Memorial Lecture:

"Dr. Donald Kroodsma, professor emeritus of biology at University of
Massachusetts Amherst, invites you to listen to birds as you've never
listened before – to not just identify them, but to identify with
them. Hear a song sparrow work through its repertoire. Listen to
conversations among crows and jays. See and hear the exquisite beauty in
the songs of thrushes and learn how each male uses his songs to best
effect. Discover the common elements of the sounds of a babbling baby
wren and baby human. You'll learn to hear our most common birds in ways
you never imagined."

Dr. Kroodsma will be available to sign books after the talk. The lecture
begins at 7:30, but come early to visit with fellow birders, browse in
the gift shop, and enjoy live music beginning at 5:30.  Stay later for
stargazing in the Observatory if weather permits.

Members: adults $8; students and seniors $7
Nonmembers: adults $10; students and seniors $9

"Did St. Francis preach to the birds?  Whatever for?  If he really liked
birds he would have done better to preach to the cats." -- Rebecca West
