A Badger Talk presented by University of Wisconsin Madison Professor Lauren Riters as part of our Wisconsin Science Festival Week celebration.
Scientists have known how birds sing for decades but why they sing is still a puzzle. Do they sing for pleasure? For love? To mark a territory? And how do birds know when and what to sing? This talk will explore these questions and also address what birds learn by listening to songs. Admission is FREE, but registration is required.
