I heard it and wow I need to figure out how or if they keep this on the  
website or how to record it.

Sorry I  missed it.  For those who would like to learn how to identify  some
bird songs, you might want to check out the following Hadley School  for the
Blind course.

A Birdsong Tutor
The distinctive chirp of a  bird in spring is a familiar joy to many people.
Would you like to identify  less common birds? Try this introduction to
identifying birdsongs and other  sounds of nature, developed especially for
visually impaired  people.

For anyone who is interested in learning bird songs by ear, you  may enjoy
seeing the news tonight.  A group of blind birders from  Michigan was filmed
at an event earlier this year and will be shown on the  CBS Evening news
Tonight.  I am involved with the group, but since I  was still down south
when this event happened, I was not able to be at this  event.  Below you
will find some additional info on it.

It's  finally happening! Donna almost was jumping out of her skin when she
called  me - our spot on CBS will air tonight, so be sure to watch the 6:30
news!  If you can think of anyone I missed with this message, please let  
them
know!



CBS filmed Donna Posont and our kids and adult  friends doing a Birding By
Ear event in Dearborn in early April.  The  event was cosponsored by Cornell
Lab of Ornithology, and it is with deep  gratitude to Cornell that we are
excitedly posting this news! This is  fabulous opportunity for children with
visual impairments and blindness to  show off a special talent they have to
the whole country, and for Donna to  have a spot of recognition for the
absolutely fabulous job she does  teaching these kids about birds, their
environment and GETTING  OUTSIDE!



We are so proud! Be sure to tune in  tonight!
