Event Details

Not a birding-by-ear expert yet? Learn how to record YOUR OWN bird sounds to help with ID. You already record birds by photo, take the next step by recording bird songs! Tom Graves loves recording bird sounds, and will walk you through field recording basics and how to save and share those recordings on your computer. After the presentation, the class will go outside and record a few sounds and download them to a laptop. Bring your smart phone and, if possible, your laptop. If you like you can prepare for the workshop by downloading two files: https://morrobaybirdfestival.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Using-Audacity-2025.pdf and https://morrobaybirdfestival.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Transferring-recordings-to-computer-2025.pdf. Meets in the Conference Room at the Hampton Inn, 295 Atascadero Rd, Morro Bay.
