Cultural Naturalization of Migrating Birds

Filed under: 1

Cultural Naturalization of Migrating Birds is an intervention that will happen in the Botanic Gardens next thursday (March 6th) from 12.30-1.30. Invited and passing participants will recite material of cultural relevance to an audience of returning or soon to be migrating birds. This can range from anything like a rant to a song, or maybe an entire play or the daily newspaper! The resulting recital will then be available on podcast for download and to be played to more birds in more locations. If you would like to take part or have a question send me an email at ourflightpatterns@gmail.com.

Viewing Platform in Victoria Square Shopping Centre For those of you interested in birds, watching or watching other bird-watchers watch birds, the dome of the Victoria Square Shopping Centre will be the site of a lunch-time activity on wednesday 11th of February.  Come between 12-2 and bring your lunch and your binoculars and share your expertise with complete novices (like me) as we try and chart the skies in special field notebooks. Hopefully this will be the start of many of these events which being people together to trace the movements of our aerial counterparts.
