The Tompkins County Public Library will host Kevin J. McGowan for ”That’s Crow Biz,” a fascinating discussion about crows, Thursday, June 24 at 6:00 PM in the BorgWarner Community Room.
McGowan, instructor and coordinator for the Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s home study course in bird biology and new online short-course, “Courtship and Rivalry in Birds,” will discuss a side of crows that few people are aware of---their social lives.
“Frequently admired or hated, the American Crow is one bird everyone knows. But few people are aware of the soap-opera complexity of their social behavior,” McGowan, who has spent more than 25 years studying these birds, said.
This program is free and open to the public. For more information, contact Carrie Wheeler-Carmenatty at (607) 272-4557 extension 248.
