About the presentation: Billions of migratory birds pass fly over North America each spring and fall, uttering quiet flight calls as they move through the night sky. Using novel bioacoustic recording strategies, Dan Mennill’s research team at the University of Windsor studies the vocal behaviour of these nocturnal migrants. In this talk, Dan explains how microphones allow them to eavesdrop on vocal communication between migratory birds and understand the ecological and conservation pressures that affect them.
