Wild Stories from the History of Bird Migration Rebecca Heisman

This is a recording of a November 15, 2024 program presented by the Delaware-Otsego Audubon Society. We’ve all heard amazing facts about bird migration—the long distances that birds travel, the ways that they navigate, and more. But have you ever wondered how we figured all of this out? While working for the American Ornithological Society, Rebecca Heisman became fascinated with the varied and creative techniques that scientists have used to study bird migration, and this eventually became the basis for her book Flight Paths: How a Passionate and Quirky Group of Pioneering Scientists Solved the Mystery of Bird Migration. In this program, Rebecca Heisman shares some surprising stories from the history of bird migration research and discuss why understanding migration is so crucial for bird conservation. About the Presenter Rebecca Heisman is an award-winning science writer who lives in Walla Walla, Washington, and has worked with organizations including the Audubon Society, the American Bird Conservancy, the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, and the American Ornithological Society. Flight Paths is her first book. It is available for purchase at https://bookshop.org/p/books/flight-p....
