SUMMARY:October Monthly Meeting with Nathan Pieplow
DESCRIPTION:Join Aiken Audubon Society with Nathan Pieplow on Wednesday October 21\, 2026 \n  \n  \nThe Best Bird Sounds You’ve Never Heard\nWhat if I told you that vultures\, shorebirds\, and House Sparrows are some of the most accomplished avian singers in North America? Maybe you’ve never heard them before. Or maybe you’ve never heard them quite this way. This presentation will delve into the surprising world of bird sounds that are hidden\, underappreciated\, and sometimes flat-out denied to exist. You’ll discover the concealed complexity inside a so-called “chirp”; hear the surprising sound of a vulture’s flight display; and learn about many common birds whose song you may have missed\, including singing ducks\, hooting sandpipers\, and wing-clapping owls. Your guide will be Nathan Pieplow\, the author of the Peterson Field Guide to Bird Sounds\, who will unravel the mysteries of some of the rarest and most startling sounds in his collection after two decades of nature sound recording. \nNathan Pieplow is the author of the Peterson Field Guide to Bird Sounds\, published in two volumes\, one for Eastern and one for Western North America. An avid bird sound recordist\, he is the author of the bird sound blog Earbirding.com\, a board member of the Bird Conservancy of the Rockies\, an author of the Colorado Birding Trail\, and former editor of the journal Colorado Birds. He is also the co-author (with Katheryn Lumsden) of the middle-grade children’s novel Confessions of a Mango. He teaches writing and rhetoric at the University of Colorado in Boulder. \nThis is an in-person meeting held at the Colorado Parks & Wildlife Office; 4255 Sinton Road 80907. Our entrance to the building is located on the EAST side (back side) of the building; not the main entrance. Parking is encouraged in the south and west parking lots. \nIf you would prefer to attend via zoom\, here is the link: \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/5770180765?pwd=ZaUy7qRz4askuBDWbOkvv3yaxEmdTH.1&omn=85079933786 \n  \nDoors Open: 6:30pm\nMeeting announcements: 7:00pm\nProgram Presentation: 7:15pm \nphoto by Rich Leche

SUMMARY:Cemetery Birding on Halloween
DESCRIPTION:Trick or Treat? No tricks here\, just the treat of enjoying an afternoon of birding with others! \nJoin us for a leisurely stroll through the evergreens on Halloween afternoon.\nWe’ll spend our time scanning the trees and grounds for the usual suspects and may possibly see a surprise Red Crossbill or Wild Turkey. We never know who might show up. \nThe majority of our time will be spent on level\, paved walkways with the occasional dirt or grass path.\nDress accordingly for an October fall afternoon in Colorado. \nThis bird walk is open to birders of all levels\, beginner to expert. \nPlease let us know if you need to borrow binoculars when you RSVP.\nSpace is limited. \nKindly RSVP to Tally at BirdingByBook@gmail.com.
