Livestream Presentation with Randi Minetor

Tuesday, December 10^th: “The Complete Language of Birds” livestream presentation with Randi Minetor 

Ancient Egyptians believed that the Earth began as an egg laid by a giant goose. Ojibwa people of America’s northern plains tell of a Great Flood that swept away the world’s evils, and the bird that braved the deep waters to gather some soil to restart the continent. European scientists once believed that swans survived the winters by turning themselves into barnacles and adhering to the bottoms of ships, transforming back into birds in spring. These and many other tales told in Randi Minetor’s latest book, The Complete Language of Birds, bring us back to a time when birds seemed like magical beings with the answers for so many of the world’s questions. This livestream will be broadcast on The Bird House YouTube and Facebook at 10am.
