Learn about fascinating bird behavior online 
Register now for course beginning Feb. 17


Ithaca, NY—It’s time to register for the next session of the Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s new online bird behavior course, beginning February 17. Each course session lasts five weeks.

The goal of “Investigating Behavior: Courtship and Rivalry in Birds” is to help people learn how to observe and interpret bird behavior and communication. A basic principle of bird behavior as it relates to survival and reproduction is explored each week using multimedia and interactive activities, guided by an instructor.

A student taking the course right now says, “I am thoroughly enjoying this course. It really takes bird watching to another level and certainly sharpens observational skills. It is wonderfully organized and it's fun!”

To enroll visit www.ecornell.com/birds and watch the video further describing course content. Course size is limited. Future sessions are scheduled to begin March 31 and May12. The cost of the course is $295 ($255 for Cornell Lab members) with a $30 dollar registration fee. To receive the Cornell Lab member discount, sign up toll-free at (866) 326-7635.
