Birding by Ear

Description

Learn how to identify that song drifting through your morning walk or echoing from the treetop. Bird sounds reveal a whole new dimension of the natural world, accessible to birders of all experience levels and abilities.

Recognize the Eastern Phoebe's repetitive phrase, the Mourning Dove's soft cooing, or the Black-capped Chickadee's cheerful call, and suddenly your backyard, neighborhood park, or forest trail becomes richer. These voices are already there—you just need to tune in.

Discover the bird sounds you're hearing most often across Massachusetts, from urban green spaces to woodlands and fields.
