Rebecca Heisman didn’t realize how amazing bird migration was until she began working at the world’s largest professional organization for bird scientists in 2015. There, she became acquainted with many different people working to uncover the mysteries of bird migration. In 2020, Rebecca quit her job in order to write a book that would tell the stories of those dedicated scientists and the tremendous work they’ve been doing. That book – Flight Paths – was just recently released. Join us for this on-line event where Rebecca will share stories of bird migration research from her new book, with special insights into the places and personalities.
Two lucky webinar attendees will win a copy of Flight Paths!
