The Dawn Chorus—the surge of birdsong that greets early spring mornings—is one of nature’s most remarkable performances. In this engaging talk, biologist Sandra Milligan invites you to explore the rich soundscape of Campbell River’s breeding birds without having to rise before dawn. Discover who is singing, why birds vocalize, and more about their breeding behaviour. From dramatic examples of sexual selection such as extravagant feathers and vocal mimicry to the often-overlooked beauty of familiar birds like starlings and robins, this presentation reveals the surprising complexity behind the songs we hear every spring and their role in breeding.
